5.3.3 Setting the speed

The speed can be set in two ways:
Directly using the turn wheel or by a long key press.

Turn wheel

The turn wheel can be used to make speed settings directly.

Turn wheel backwards:

increase speed to maximum possible.

Turn wheel backwards:

reduce speed to minimum possible.

The setting is made in stages.

Press and hold down the "Speed" key
The speed setting is activated by pressing and holding down the "Speed" or "Extra fine" key in
the selected speed mode (Coarse/Fine/Extra Fine). The speed is reduced in stages.

Each stage is indicated acoustically. If you switch directly from the minimum to the maximum
radius a long acoustic signal sounds. There are five different levels, each roughly halving the
speed.

The Coarse levels begin at maximum speed. Fine at 1,000 µm/s, and Extra Fine at 100 µm/s.
