pendant
Explanation:
It's the same word in English and French. There are many references online, the following are just a few examples. A CNC machine has a console, and the pendant is used by the operator to make fine adjustments, since he can examine the workpiece closely while holding the pendant, which is on a long cable or connected wirelessly.
