JG
FUNCTION: Jog
DESCRIPTION:
The JG command sets the jog mode and the jog slew speed of the axes.
ARGUMENTS: JG n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n or
JGA=n where
n is a signed even integer in the range 0 to +/-22,000,000 decimal. The units of this are
counts/second. (Use JGN = n or JGM = n for the virtual axes)
For stepper motor operation, the maximum value is 6,000,000 steps/ second
n = ? Returns the absolute value of the jog speed for the specified axis.

EXAMPLES:
JG 100,500,2000,5000
Set for jog mode with a slew speed of 100 counts/sec for the A-axis, 500
counts/sec for the B-axis, 2000 counts/sec for the C-axis, and 5000
counts/sec for D-axis.

JG ,,-2000
Change the C-axis to slew in the negative direction at -2000 counts/sec.
Note: JG2 is the minimum non-zero speed.
