Joystick Xinput Control
Is it possible to implement a Pause and Unpause feature for the Joystick XInput Control in Synthiam ARC? I have noticed that users frequently press additional buttons on the Xbox controller before the robot has finished executing the current script. This results in some chaos, with the robot attempting to catch up with the commands.
