(PAL messages)

In the jog modes, the motion of the cutting tool is controlled by the use of
pushbuttons, switches, or hand pulse generators (HPGs). Typically these
are mounted on or near the MTB panel.

The cutting tool can be jogged by using three different methods:

continuous jog ---- the axes move continuously while a pushbutton on
the MTB panel is held.

incremental jog ---- the axes move a predetermined amount each time a
pushbutton on the MTB panel is pressed.

HPG jog ---- the axes move when an HPG is turned by hand and an axis
has been selected on the MTB panel.

Normally, the axes can only be jogged in manual mode. Your system
installer can write PAL to allow jogging in the automatic and MDI modes.
Refer to page 4-6.
