thats down to your software...
It simply supplies a train of pulses..
If your software can detect say > 20 pulses in 200mSec then it should jump
in tens..
if more than say 30 pulses in 200mSec then jump in 100's..

in theory it shouldn't be too hard to write this kind of routine at all..

something I've thought about for a couple of projects Im working on.
