[Function] Check if valid data is contained in the axis pattern specified in operand 1 at the position
number specified in operand 2.
The output will turn ON if none of the data specified by the axis pattern is available (=
position data display on the teaching pendant: X.XXX / position data display in the PC
software: blank). 0 is treated as valid data.
[Example 1] PTST 11 10 300 Turn ON output 300 if there are no valid values of the
X and Y-axes at position 10.
Output 300 will turn OFF if the position data is given
as follows:
[Example 2] An axis pattern can be indirectly specified using a variable. An example of specifying the
operation in [Example 1] indirectly using a variable is shown below.
11 (binary)
o 3 (decimal)
LET 1 3 Assign 3 to variable 1.
