Adjusting the Feedrate

The Feedrate Override rotary switch can be used to override the
currently active feedrate or rapid rate for machine moves. The switch
provides a range of 0% to 150%. Setting the switch to 100% will allow
the actual feedrate or rapid rate currently active to be used.

Overriding the Spindle RPM

The SPINDLE Override rotary switch can be used to override the
currently active programmed spindle speed. The switch provides a
range of 5% to 120%. Setting the switch to 100% will allow the actual
spindle speed currently active to be used.

The machine builder determines the default rapid rate and
maximum feedrate at setup. If the CNC is shut down, the
configuration file reloads these default rates at the next
power-on.
