7.10 Zone Signal

How the boundaries are set varies depending on the PIO pattern.

x

If fixed boundaries are applied to all operations, set them using parameters. (PIO pattern = 0 or 2).

x

To set different boundaries for each position number to support multiple loads, set respective settings in the

position table. (PIO pattern = 3)

Example of use in operation) Output a zone signal in a range of 40 to 120 mm while the actuator is moving from the

home to the 150-mm position (position 1).

Method) x PIO pattern = 0 or 2

Use the parameters “Zone boundary+” and “Zone boundary–” to set the zone in

which the zone signal is output, as shown below:

Parameter No. 1

Zone boundary+ 120 (mm)

Parameter No. 2

Zone boundary–

40 (mm)

x

PIO pattern = 3

Use the “Zone+” and “Zone-” fields of the position table to set the zone in which

the zone signal is output, as shown below:

No.
