There are four ways to move the robot under manual control:
Joint jogging

Cartesian jogging

Jogging to a waypoint
Jog behavior is affected by the Cont/Incr button, and will either occur occurs as a continuous move for as long as the jog button is held down, or as an incremental move whose distance is equal to the currently selected step size Step Size button. The Cont/Incr button switches between those two modes, and that button’s LED indicates whether the robot is in continuous or incremental mode. Please note that clicking a step size button will select
Note: Clicking a Step Size button selects incremental mode if the current mode is continuous, and dragging the

Jog Velocity slider selects continuous mode if the current mode is incremental.
Jog speed is affected by both the jog speed Jog Speed slider and will be is further limited by the maxvel slider on the persistent control panel (lower portion of the user interface) if maxvel Maximum Velocity (in the Persistent Controls section) if the Maximum Velocity slider is set to a lower speed than the jog speed Jog Speed slider.

Joint jogging is the simplest, easiest to understand form of jogging the robot. Each joint may be jogged You can jog each joint individually using the arrow buttons next to the joint position Joint Position sliders on the Jog tab of the main notebook. Joint jogging may be done either in continuous mode (the robot moves for as long as the mouse click on the button is sustained) or in incremental mode, in which case the robot will move moves for the increment that is currently selected on the four step size Step Size buttons.

Cartesian jogging (jogging the machine in X, Y, Z directions or rotating the machine in A, B, or C rotational axes) can be accomplished using the Cartesian jogging Jogging buttons on the Jog tab of the main notebook. A, B, and C jog motions rotate around the X-, Y-, or Z-axis at the current tool control point.
Like joint jogging, Cartesian jogs can be either continuous or incremental. Additionally, the directions (X, Y, Z) and rotations (A, B, C) can either be relative to the robots work offset coordinate system robot's currently active user frame or relative to the tool. Switching To switch between these two frames of reference is accomplished with the Tool/Work , use the Frame: User/Tool button.
Cartesian jogging is simple to understand when the work offset user frame coordinate system is similar to the robot’s base coordinate system, because X, Y, and Z jogs mimic the behavior of a CNC machine. It can quickly can get confusing when the work offset coordinate system involves a rotation. These concepts are explained in this quick tip video.
Note: If you find unexpected behavior when jogging, try reverting to the base coordinate system (no active work offset).
Cartesian jogging is relative to one of two possible frames: the user frame (ai.ke.a , work offset coordinates) or the tool frame, determined by the work frame/tool frame Frame: User/Tool button. When work user frame is selected, jogging in Z negative (for example) will move moves along the Z negative direction of the active work offsetuser frame. When the tool frame is selected, a Z negative jog will move moves along the Z negative direction of the active tool frame.
