AXIS uses an logarithmic relationship between the position of the jog
slider and the jog speed in inches per minute.  At the left hand side,
the jog speeds are fairly close together (e.g., .001 and .002 in/min)
and at the right hand side the speeds are further apart (e.g., 296 and
300 in/min).  The exact numbers available depend on the axis SCALE (to
set the low end to "about one count per second") and MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY
(to set the high end).

Whatever value you give in the inifile is converted to one of the two
nearest values actually available on the slider.

The intent is not to have exact speeds selectable for jogging, but to
have a wide range of speeds available to be suitable for quick
positioning (high end) and fine-tuning (low and middle end).
