1) Using a teaching tool such as the MEC PC software, select an operation pattern, and set
the target position (coordinate values), speed and acceleration/deceleration data that suits
to the selected pattern.
2) Turn the start signal ON for the one desired to have a positioning from the host such as
PLC.
3) The actuator is placed at the proper coordinate value according to the positioning
information in the specified operation condition table.
4) If the positioning is completed, the completion signal is also output.
The above procedure describes the basic operation method in the MEC mode 1.
