Motorized Labjack
Button Control Settings
The buttons on the front of the unit can be used either to jog the motor, or to perform
moves to absolute positions.
Mode
: This setting determines the type of move performed when the front panel
buttons are pressed.
Move By
: Once set to this mode, the move parameters for the buttons are taken
from the ‘Jog’ parameters on the ‘Move/Jogs’ settings tab.
Move To
: In this mode, each button can be programmed with a different position
value, such that the controller will move the motor to that position when the
specific button is pressed.
Left/Top Button Pos.
: The position to which the motor will move when the top button
is pressed.
Right/Lower Button Pos.
: The position to which the motor will move when the bottom
button is pressed.
Drive Array Velocities
These parameters relate to the velocity for moves initiated by the DRIVE bar graph.
Each specifies a velocity to apply when the associated bar is clicked. These settings
are applicable in either direction of pot deflection, i.e. 4 possible velocity settings in
the forward or reverse motion directions.
Note
The following parameters are applicable only if ‘Move To’ is selected in the ‘Mode’ field.
Note
A ‘Home’ move can be performed by pressing and holding both buttons for 2 seconds.
This function is irrespective of the ‘Button Mode’ setting.
Note
It is acceptable to set velocities equal to each other to reduce the number of speeds.
