I think I found more:
"
axis.N.jog-vel-mode IN bit
        When FALSE (the default), the jog wheel operates in position
        mode. The axis will move exactly jog-scale units for each count,
        regardless of how long that might take. When TRUE, the wheel
        operates in velocity mode - motion stops when the wheel stops,
        even if that means the commanded motion is not completed.
