Jogging the axes with handwheels

Up to three electronic handwheels may be used to move the axes.

Depending on configuration, there may be a general handwheel to move any axis or
an individual handwheel per axis that will only move its associated axis.

Once the desired resolution has been selected and depending on the type of
handwheel being used, general or individual, proceed as follows.

General handwheel

The general handwheel is not associated with any axis in particular. It may be used
to move any axis of the machine (if the manufacturer has set it that way).

Proceed as follows.

1. Select the axis to be jogged.

On the JOG keyboard, press one of the keys for the axis to be jogged. If several
axes are selected simultaneously, they all move at the same time.

The CNC will highlight them, indicating that they are selected. When selecting an
axis or quitting the handwheel mode using the movement selector, the previous
one is automatically deselected.

2. Once the axis has been selected, the CNC will move it as the handwheel is turned

depending on the setting of the selector switch and on the turning direction of the
handwheel.

The feedrate depends on how fast the handwheel is turned.

To move the axes with the handwheels, turn the jog selector switch

of the operator

panel to one of the handwheel positions. Every position indicates the multiplying
factor applied to the handwheel pulses; the typical values are the following.
