12 CONTROL SUB FUNCTIONS
[2] Step mode
In step operations, the timing for stopping th e control can be set. This is called
the "step mode". (The "step mode" is set in the control data " Cd.34 Step
mode".)
The following shows the two types of "ste p mode" functions.
(1) Deceleration unit step
The operation stops at positioning data req uiring automatic deceleration. (A
normal operation will be carried out until the positioning dat a requiring
automatic deceleration is found. Once found, that positioning data will be
executed, and the operation will then autom atically decelerate and stop.)
(2) Data No. unit step
The operation automatically decelerates a nd stops for each positioning
data. (Even in continuous path control, an autom atic deceleration and stop
will be forcibly carried out.)
[3] Step start information
Control stopped by a step operation can be co ntinued by setting "step continue"
(to continue the control) in the "step start information". (The "step start
information" is set in the control data " Cd.36 Step start information ".)
The following table shows the results of starts using the "step start information"
during step operation.

The warnings "Step not possible (warning code: 511)" will occur if the " Md.26
Axis operation status" is as shown below or the step valid flag is OFF when step
start information is set.
