Jogging
In ‘Local’ mode, the motor actuators can be jogged using the front panel arrow keys,
or by using an optional jog handset connected to the MOTOR CONTROL port on the
rear panel of the unit (see Section 2.5. for details on the jog handset). There are two
jogging modes available, ‘Single Step’ and ‘Continuous’. In ‘Single Step’ mode, the
motor moves by the step size specified in the Step Distance parameter. If the jog key
is held down, single step jogging is repeated until the button is released - see Fig. 3.6.
In ‘Continuous’ mode, the motor actuator will accelerate and move at the jog velocity
while the button is held down.
