Manual Jogging;
A manual jog function is provided to rotate the motor at low speed either clockwise or
counter-clockwise. Touching the “Enter Jog Speed” display causes the keypad to pop up.
500Hz is a good starting point, rotating the motor shaft at one-quarter of a turn per second.
Press the “JOG CW” or “JOG CCW” button to turn the motor; the motor will continue to
rotate in the chosen direction for as long as you keep your finger on the button. The
“PULSING” indicator will light green to indicate that the PLC is outputting pulses and the
“IN POSN” indicator will extinguish to indicate that the motor is moving. “IN POSN” will re-
light when you remove your finger from the button; this indicates that the motor has moved
the requisite number of pulses commanded by the PLC. If this indicator were not to re-
light, it would generally mean that the motor was not able to move in accordance with the
pulses sent from the PLC because of a mechanical problem or the motor becoming
disconnected from the servo amplifier.
