4.4.6 Menu Option - Joystick Mode
This option is used to set the operating mode of the top
panel joystick, as detailed in Section 4.3.
In all modes, directional control of the motor is achieved
by moving the joystick in both directions (left and right for
CH1 and CH3, or up and down for CH2 and CH4).
Press the MENU button, then use the joystick to scroll
through the menu options.
Press the MENU button to enter the Joystick Mode
option.
Use the joystick to select the required mode.
In 'Jog to Count' mode, the joystick can be programmed
with two position values, one for each direction of
deflection, such that the controller will move the motor to
that position when the joystick is moved. In this mode,
move the joystick left (Ch1 and 3) or up (Ch 2 and 4) to
go to position 1, and right or down to go to position 2.
These 'taught' positions are set through the Teach
Position option - see Section 4.4.7.
In Jogging in Steps mode, the motor moves one jog step
for each deflection of the joystick. The jog step size is set
in the Set Jog Step Size menu option - see Section 4.4.5.
or in the 'Channel' settings tab - see Section 6.3.3.
When Velocity Control mode is selected, the speed of the
motor increases as a function of deflection. The
maximum speed is entered as a Step Rate value in the
'Max Step Rate' parameter in the 'Device Control Options'
parameters on the Device settings tabs - see Section
6.3.3.
Press the MENU button to save the mode selected and
return to the operating screen.
