9 MAJOR POSITIONING CONTROL
(b) When the software stroke limit is valid
The positioning is carried out in a clock wise/counterclockwise direction
depending on the software stroke limit range setting method.
Because of this, positioning with "shortcut con trol" may not be
possible.
Example
345.00000°
315.00000°
Positioning carried out in the clockwise direction.
When the current value is moved from 0° to 315°, positioning is carried out in the clockwise direction
if the software stroke limit lower limit value is 0° and the upper limit value is 345°.
POINT
Positioning addresses are within a range of 0° to 359.99999°.
Use the incremental system to carry out positio ning of one rotation or more.
2) Incremental system
Positioning is carried out for a designated m ovement amount in a
designated movement direction when in the inc remental system of
positioning.
The movement direction is determined by th e sign (+, –) of the movement
amount.
For a positive (+) movement direction ......Clockwise
For a negative (–) movement direction.....Counter clockwise
POINT
Positioning of 360° or more can be carried out with t he incremental system.
At this time, set as shown below to invalidate t he software stroke limit.
[Software stroke limit upper limit value = Software stroke limit lower limit value]
