Figure 7 NJB Jogbox keypad
The Jogbox buttons are provided with LEDs which display the state of the associated functions.
Probe enable
This button is only effective when moving the probe using the Jogbox.
The LED shows the current setting:
LED off. The probe can be moved in this condition but cannot measure. The axis
movements will not be stopped if the probe touches an object. Use this condition
only to resume probe operation after a collision. It is strongly inadvisable to use
it for other functions because it could cause damage to the probe or to the parts
placed on the work top.
LED on. This condition allows the probe to be moved for measuring. The axis
movement is stopped if the probe touches an object or at a given point. This is
the normal way of using the probe.
Enable
The button must be kept pressed when the JogBox is used to move the axes. If the
joystick is moved without holding this button pressed, the axes will not move (this prevents
unwanted accidental movement of machine axes).
