4.2.3Jogging the axes with handwheels
Up to three electronic handwheels may be used to move the axes.
Depending on configuration, there may be a general handwheel to move any axis or an individual handwheel per axis that will only move its associated axis.
To move the axes with the handwheels, turn the jog selector switch(a) of the operator panel to one of the handwheel positions. Every position indicates the multiplying factor applied to the handwheel pulses; the typical values are the following.
(a)
Selector position | Distance |
|
|
1 | 0.100 mm or 0.0100 inches. |
10 | 1.000 mm or 0.1000 inches. |
100 | 10.000 mm or 1.0000 inches. |

Once the desired resolution has been selected and depending on the type of handwheel being used, general or individual, proceed as follows.
General handwheel
The general handwheel is not associated with any axis in particular. It may be used to move any axis of the machine (if the manufacturer has set it that way).
Proceed as follows.
1.Select the axis to be jogged.
On the JOG keyboard, press one of the keys for the axis to be jogged. If several axes are selected simultaneously, they all move at the same time.
The CNC will highlight them, indicating that they are selected. When selecting an axis or quitting the handwheel mode using the movement selector, the previous one is automatically deselected.
2.Once the axis has been selected, the CNC will move it as the handwheel is turned depending on the setting of the selector switch and on the turning direction of the handwheel.
The feedrate depends on how fast the handwheel is turned.
