been released, the motor will continue to run. Explanation: axis running distance = number of
received pulses * X (X = 1 / 0.1 / 0.01 /0.001/0.0001), the motor will not stop running until the
pulse number is completely converted into the running distance. The larger the X number, the
higher the gear position, the more obvious the delay. Select “Step / Velocity” mode, please
operate with caution.
How to operate the axis to run a specified length:
Press and hold the “SPEED” button for more than 2 seconds. At this time, the L, M, and F LEDs
will be on. The MPG will enter a pulse mode. Press the axis button and send a pulse. The motor
