5. OPERATION
(4) Automatic continuous operation
POINT
This function is valid when the point table is selected us ing the input signal or
the remote input of CC-Link. It cannot be used when the point table No. is
selected using the remote register of CC-Link.
(a) What is automatic continuous operation?
By merely choosing one point table and making a start (RYn1 or RYn 2), operation can be performed in
accordance with the point tables having consecu tive numbers.
Automatic operation is available in two types: varied spee d operation and automatic continuous
positioning operation.
Either type may be selected as follows.
1) In absolute value command specifying s ystem

(b) Varied speed operation
Speed during positioning operation can be changed by sett ing the auxiliary function of the point table.
Use the number of point tables equal to the num ber of speeds to be set.
By setting "1" to the auxiliary function, operation is performed at the speed set in the next point table
during positioning. The position data valid at this tim e is the data selected at start and the acceleration
and deceleration time constants of the subs equent point tables are made invalid.
By setting "1" to the auxiliary function of up to point table No.254, operation can be performed at a
maximum of 255 speeds. Set "0" to the auxiliar y function of the last point table.
When performing varied speed operation, always se t "0" to the dwell. If "1" or more is set, automatic
continuous positioning operation is made valid.
The following table gives a setting example .

Note 1. Always set "0".
2. Always set "0" or "2" to the auxiliary function of the last point table among the consecutive point tables.
