Chapter 3 Before positioning
3- 23
positioning operation after executing origin determination (Home Return, floating origin and the
current position preset) in case it is operated with absolute coordinate or in determined origin.
3.1.12 Manual operation
In general, manual operations refer to jog operation, inching operation which don’t use operation data.
(1) Jog operation
• Jog operation means positioning by jog operation stat contact point or positioning monitoring
package.

• It is operated by jog speed set in positioning parameter.
• It can be executed when origin is not determined.
• Acceleration/deceleration process is controlled by the duration set in jog acceleration/deceleration
time among parameter settings of this software package.
• If jog speed is set out of allowable range, it generates an error and operation is not available
Range
High speed jog
operation
1 ∼ 100,000
(Unit: 1pps)
Low speed jog
operation
1 ∼ jog high speed
Remark
• Make sure to follow the cautions
Bias speed ≤ Jog high speed ≤ Speed limit
(2) Inching operation
• As one of manual operations, it outputs as much as pulse set at the speed for origin/manual
parameter inching speed.
• While operation by jog instruction may not exactly move to the start/end points, inching instruction
may easily reach to a target point as much as desirable distance. Therefore, it is probable to move
close to an operation position by jog instruction and then move to an exact target position by
inching operation instruction.
• The available range is between –2,147,483,648 ∼ 2,147,483,647 Pulse.
