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.
