Configuring the Ultra5000 Drive Chapter 4

Understanding the Jog
Window

The Properties window for the Jog branch looks like this.

Use the Jog window to:

set jog velocity, acceleration and deceleration parameters

monitor status relating to a jog as it executes

issue commands that start, stop and set the direction of a jog

You can edit parameters for both an online and an offline Jog branch. However,
you can monitor status and execute direct commands (executed through the
Ultraware interface, rather than through a compiled, loaded and executed
program) only for a Jog branch that is the child of an online drive.

The following parameters apply to the Jog window.

The following display is the default status for a Jog branch of an online drive.
