Jog Timeout
Period
Set the timeout (in minutes) that the machine will keep the motor drive engaged, before
the motor drive is disabled. The load applied to the torque cell, must reach at least 25 %
of the cell's capacity before the timeout activation is applied. At the end of the timeout
period, the 'Jog Active' menu screen is automatically switched back to the 'Ready to Test'
menu screen.
