Jog Parameters

Chapter 8

8-7

There are five Jog Speed parameters used to set the speed at which
continuous jogs take place:

Parameter:

Page:

Lowest Jog Speed

8-8

Second Jog Speed

8-9

Third Jog Speed

8-10

Fourth Jog Speed

8-11

Highest Jog Speed

8-12

Important: Incremental jogs jog at the value assigned to the Third Jog

Speed parameter. This value may be overridden by the PAL program.

The value specified for each of the five jog speed parameters is equal to

the speed at which a continuous jog move takes place (unless that jog is

selected as a “Traverse” jog). These five parameters correspond to the five

selections under <SPEED/MULTIPLY> on the MTB panel when a

continuous jog takes place. If the continuous jog is selected as a traverse

jog, then the <SPEED/MULTIPLY> setting is ignored, and the special

traverse jog speed is used.

The jog speed parameters may range between the following values;

however, keep in mind that none of the values for these parameters may

overlap (the feedrates must increase or stay the same as the higher switch

positions are set). This does not apply to the traverse jog speed. This is

the acceptable range for jog speeds:

0.00600 to 243840.00000 mmpm.

or

0.00024 to 9600.00000 ipm.

The default setting for <SPEED/MULTIPLY> on the pushbutton MTB

panel is LOW X1.
