For a step-by-step description of a typical test flow using these controls, refer to
“Testing a sample” on page 91. This section contains two procedures, one for
systems using an interlock and one for systems without an interlock.
Jog at High Speed
Under normal conditions, in SET UP mode, jog speed is limited to 600 mm/min or less.
There may be situations, such as moving the crosshead into position at the start of a
testing session, where this low speed in inconvenient.
Jogging at high speed involves more risk so the process involves pressing both the
UNLOCK and JOG buttons at the same time, as follows:
Additional notes:
• Although you must press the UNLOCK and JOG buttons together to start the jog at
full speed, you can release the
UNLOCK button once the crosshead starts to move.
The crosshead ramps up to full speed and continues to move while you are pressing
the
JOG button.
