Program/Label to RUN is: MAIN
FIND ALPHA <- -> TRACE STEP
Run menu: You can select or edit a program name to be
RUN

PRUN
(but
PRUN
can be placed in a program that can be
RUN
). You can enable RP240 trace mode and/or step mode. By pressing
ENTER
,
the program name shown will be searched for and run.
When a program is
RUN
and
TRACE
is selected, the RP240 display will trace all
program commands as they are executed. This is different from the
TRACE
command in that the trace output goes to the RP240 display, not to a terminal via
the RS-232C port.
When a program is
RUN
and
STEP
is selected, step mode has been entered. This
is similar to the
STEP
command, but when selected from the
RUN
menu, step
mode also allows single stepping by pressing the
ENTER
key. Both RP240 trace
mode and step mode are exited when program execution is terminated.

Jog menu: You can jog individual axes by pressing the RP240 arrow keys.
Pressing an arrow key will start motion and releasing the arrow key will stop
motion (using the jog acceleration and deceleration values specified by
JOGA
and
JOGAD
). The left and right arrow keys correspond to axis #1 CCW and CW
motion. The up and down arrows keys are for axis #2. You may select either the
jog low velocity or the jog high velocity by pressing the appropriate
LO/HI
function key.
You may edit the jog velocity by pressing the
EDIT
function key, then selecting
which velocity you want to edit. Once a cursor is placed under the desired
velocity, you can change the number by using the numeric keypad and pressing
ENTER
when done. To jog with the new velocity, first press the

to enable the arrow keys again.
