Inching Operation

Operation overview of the inching operation

Use the hardware stroke limit function when performing the inching operation at a position close to the upper
or lower limit. (Page 241 Hardware stroke limit function)
When the hardware stroke limit function is not used, the workpiece moves beyond the movement range,
resulting in an accident.
Operation
In the inching operation, pulses are output to the drive unit for 1.77ms from when Forward run JOG start signal [Y8, YA, YC,
YE] or Reverse run JOG start signal [Y9, YB, YD, YF] is turned on to move the workpiece for a specified movement amount.
