Jogging
During PC operation, the motor actuators are jogged using the GUI panel arrow keys.
There are two jogging modes available, ‘Single Step’ and ‘Continuous’. In ‘Single
Step’ mode, the motor moves by the ste p size specifie d in the Ste p Distance
parameter. If the jog key is held down, single step jogging is repeated until the button
is released - see Fig. 4.5. In ‘Continuous’ mode, the motor actuator will accelerate and
move at the jog velocity while the button is held down.
1) On the GUI panel, click the ‘Settings’ button to display the Settings panel.
