Traversing axes
You can traverse the axes in manual mode via the Increment or Axis keys or handwheels.
During a traverse initiated from the keyboard, the selected axis moves at the programmed
setup feedrate. During an incremental traverse, the selected axis traverses a specified
increment.
Set the default feedrate
Specify the feedrate to be used for axis traversal in the set-up, in the "Settings for Manual
Operation" window.
