Jog Parameters

Function
This parameter is used to determine if a selected axis is available for an
arbitrary angle jog. Setting this parameter true allows the operator to use
this axis to perform an arbitrary angle jog. Setting this parameter false
prevents the operator from using this axis to perform an arbitrary angle jog.
The arbitrary angle jog feature is used to allow the operator to perform a
jog at some angle selected through PAL. The use of this feature is very
dependant on the system installer’s PAL program. Refer to documentation
prepared by the system installer for details on operation.
True -- Setting this parameter as “True” lets you use this axis to perform an
arbitrary angle jog. Note, to successfully perform an arbitrary angle jog, at
least two of the axes should be set as “True” for this parameter.
False -- Setting this parameter as “False” prevents you from using this axis
to perform an arbitrary angle jog.
This table lists the parameter number for each of the axes:
