10.8 JOG Operation
10.8.1 Setting and Operation of JOG Operation
An operation in which the motor is rotated only while operation commands are being input is
called JOG operation. This is used to forcibly rotate the motor using input from an external
switch, for instance when to make adjustments.
Pulses are output while the JOG operation start contact is on.

Operations of each contact
• The BUSY flags (X30-X33), which indicate that the motor is running, will turn on when the
JOG operation starts, and they will turn off when the operation completes.
• The operation done flags (X34-X37), which indicate the completion of operation, will turn on
when the current operation is completed, and they will be held until the next positioning
control, JOG operation or home return operation starts.
Precautions on programming
• The startup contact and flag numbers vary depending on channel numbers (axis numbers).
