Works ok with my Macintosh Macpcr program.

It's a continous turning knob and on the mac you
can assign any key when turning right and left and
push and turn. There is also a script to
turn the light on/off.
Not the same smoothness as a ham radio transceiver
tuning however ...

I didn't test it on a PC.
