With the personal computer, you can start a jog operation or return the servomotor to its

The jog operation function can be exercised to check the servo drive, servomotor,

power supply, or other wiring. (For the use of the jog operation function, no external I/O

wiring connection is necessary.)

Two different jog operations are available: normal jogging and pulse train based

jogging. Normal jogging is conducted in the speed control mode, whereas pulse

train based jogging is conducted in the position control mode with a preselected

number of pulses fed. Both of these jog operations are described below.
