Incremental Movement For Precise Positioning - ABB IRC5 with FlexPendant Operating Manual

4.6.8 Incremental movement for precise positioning

Incremental movement
Use incremental movement to jog the robot in small steps, which enables very
precise positioning.
This means that each time the joystick is deflected, the robot moves one step
(increment). If the joystick is deflected for one or more seconds, a sequence of
steps, (at a rate of 10 steps per second), will be performed as long as the joystick
is deflected.
Default mode is no increment, then the robot moves continuously when the joystick
is deflected.
There are three ways to select the increment size:
To use the toggle button you must first select an increment size in the Jogging
window or Quickset menu.
Selecting increments using the toggle button
Press the Toggle increments button to switch increment size, you toggle between
no increments and the increment size you previously selected in the Jogging
window.
