As the title says - is there any way to increase the jog speed (beyond 100%) without manipulating the axis calibration?
You should not change calibration - to change speeds. Jog speed relates to Max Rate: See Grbl v1.1 Configuration · gnea/grbl Wiki You may need to tweak Acceleration as well Grbl v1.1 Configuration · gnea/grbl Wiki to prevent higher Max Rates from stalling. Read the Grbl Wiki - it does explain how to tweak both. Setting values too high will lead to stalling.
I agree. I wouldn't normally manipulate the calibration to increase jog rate, but I am still building my machine so the calibration is somewhat irrelevant - I need the jog the machine to get things out of my way while working and noticed that the jog speed is very slow. I will take a look at the links provided and hopefully there will be a solution there. Thank you!
Well, do calibrate first, if your off by half the distance, your speed is half of commanded as well (for example) or you could be stalling more than moving (feeling slow, but may be stalling due to incorrect values)
I have already performed a calibration of the (2) axis and the speed increased slightly, but it was still less than I was hoping for.
Yes, then proceed to tune Acceleration and then Max Rate You have to do steps-per-mm first as the other values depend on that. Acceleration is next (get up to speed as fast as possible - without stalling) and then Max Rate (now that you can get up to speed, tune the Maximums for each axis so that it all stays Safe)
