What happens to the motor when the JOG pushbutton is pressed?

When the JOG pushbutton is pressed, the motor runs only while the button is held down. This operation is typically designed for applications where a brief and controlled movement of the motor is needed, such as positioning or calibration tasks. Once the button is released, the motor stops immediately. This functionality allows for precise control over the motor's operation, enabling operators to make small adjustments without having to continuously activate a power source or start-up sequence.

The continuous running of the motor, which is suggested in one of the alternatives, does not apply here as that would imply a different mode of operation. The immediate stopping of the motor after pressing the JOG button is also incorrect because JOG requires the button to be held for action. Lastly, the notion of alternate running and stopping also does not fit the behavior of the JOG function, which focuses on single-direction, temporary operation as long as the pushbutton is actively engaged.
