Hi,

Is the problem also one of 'key memory'? - the way PCs remember the number
of key presses and execute them all sequentially. If the jog button is held
down, the keyboard will auto-repeat an unknown number of times and continue
to execute these repeats after the key is released (unless it is somehow
told otherwise). This will then give an almost arbitrary additional movement
to the stepper (or presumable servo as well).
