Jog Speed
« on: May 18, 2017, 09:51:29 PM »
Is there a way to slow the jog speed down on just one axis?  I need the rapid speed where it is on all axes, but jog speed on the Z axis needs to be 50%.  X and Y needs to stay at 100%.

Hi,
I don't know for sure but
Quote
rc = mc.mcJogSetRate(
      number mInst,
      number axisId,
      number percent)
suggests that the jog rate is assigned per axis.

About the best way is to use the mc.mcJogSetRate as Craig mentioned, this could be done in the PLC script by getting the value of the slider and then setting the axis to what you require using a bit of maths ;-)
