6.4.4 Jog Wheels
A jog wheel on your S2.
Functionally speaking, the two jog wheels are quite similar to the encoders described above:
they have an endless rotary movement (here continuous) and an additional push action availa-
ble on their top plate. The main difference (beside their size) is that, on the jog wheel, the
push movement is very tiny and is rather used for detecting whether you put your hand on the
top plate or on the outer rim when spinning the jog wheel. Hence, this leads to two different
rotation controls:
▪ You can spin the jog wheel’s outer rim.
▪ You can spin the jog wheel by (pressing and) turning its top plate.
This makes the jog wheel a versatile element that gives you a very precise control, e.g. for
scratching, seeking in a track, or browsing in lists.
