Jogging the Motors 
 

If this is the first time that the machine has been started after being connected to power, the motors must be jogged 
to verify correct rotation. To do this, you must be logged in as a Technician. After logging in, navigate to 
Diagnostics -> Jog Motors. The Jog Motors screen is shown in 

Figure 3-10

. 

 

 

Figure 3-10: Jog Motors Screen 

Select the desired jog duration and select Compressor Motor or Fan Motor from the dropdown as shown. You will 
need to jog both individually to verify correct rotation. The Jog Delay field allows you to delay the start of the jog 
from the time that you press the 

Start Jog

 button. This is to allow you time to get into a position to view the rotation 

before the motor is started. Note that the controller will only allow one jog every 10 seconds and will disable the 

Start Jog

 button during this time period. 

 
After correct rotation has been verified, return to the Home screen and proceed to operate the compressor. 

 
 
Operating the Compressor 

 
The compressor is now ready to operate. This section gives a basic overview of how to operate the machine.
