Press "shift" ">" for higher and "shift" "<" for lower

Can I change z feed rate on the fly somehow or do I have to interrupt run and change the variable? Don't see it any where in docs.

Just for reference, increasing the cut speed on the fly does NOT change the ramp speeds. Normally this isn't a problem, but cutting some Styrofoam I increased the cut speed from 2"/sec to 12"/sec, and the ramp speed was still down in the 2"/sec range. Quite a jerk at each end of the cut.

Weird but true.

Does this also work on the older ShopBot software(such as I'm using)
- versions SB 229 or 239 ?
(for PRT 96, not an Alpha..)
