Host Command Reference
JE - Jog Enable
Compatibility: All drives
Affects:
WI (jogging) command
See also: JA, JD, JS, WI commands
Enables jog inputs during a WI instruction. Jog accel, decel and velocity are set using the JA, JD and JS
commands, respectively.
BLu, STAC6-S, SE, Q, QE
Inputs X1 and X2 are the designated jog inputs during a WI instruction.
BLu, STAC6-Si
Inputs 5 and 6 of IN/OUT2 or top board (screw terminal) connector are the designated jog inputs during a WI
instruction.
SV, ST-Q/Si
Inputs X5 and X6 are the designated jog inputs during a WI instruction.
ST-S, STM
The STEP and DIR inputs are the designated jog inputs during a WI instruction. The STEP and DIR inputs can
each be assigned to only one function in an application. If you want to use the STEP and DIR inputs as jog inputs
you can define them as such with the JE command. JE takes no effect if the drive is set in Command Mode (CM)
7, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 or 18, because these modes predefine these inputs and take precedence over the JE
command. Also, setting the DL command (to 1 or 2) after setting the JE command reassigns the STEP and DIR
inputs as end-of-travel limit inputs and turns off jogging functionality. In other words, the JE and DL commands,
as well as Command Modes (CM) 7, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 each assign a usage to the STEP and DIR
inputs. Each of these must exclusively use the STEP and DIR inputs. Command Modes are most dominant and
will continually prevent JE and DL from using the inputs. JE and DL exclude each other by overwriting the usage
of the STEP and DIR inputs. To enable jogging with the STEP and DIR inputs simply execute the JE command
with CM=21 or CM=22.

Examples:
Command Drive sends Notes
JE - Enable jog inputs while executing the WI command
WIX4L - Wait for input X4 to close. While waiting jog inputs are active, which
means the motor can be jogged in the CW and CCW directions by
closing the jog inputs. After input X4 closes the jog function stops, at
least until the next WI command executes.
