The MCUlite-2 is a basic entry level joystick . It has the controls necessary to control a 3-axis touch-trigger CMM and Renishaw head but without the sophistication of an LCD display screen. The MCU5-2 has been developed for use with Renishaw's REVO and PH20 systems, providing the ability to move the CMM in the probe and stylus axis and has an LCD display. The wireless manual control unit (MCU W-2) is a CMM joystick designed for use with Renishaw's range of UCC controllers. Based on the MCU5‐2 joystick design, the MCU W‐2 uses modern battery technology and Bluetooth® radio modules to provide an effective wireless joystick with a maximum range of 25 m and over eight hours between battery changes.
