4.7.7 Position/Simple Direct Mode 2 (Number of Occupied Channels: 4)
In this mode, the actuator is operated by means of force control (push-motion operation based on feedback of
load cell values) and also by specifying position numbers. You can directly specify the target position as a
numerical value by switching the control signal (PMOD signal), or use a pre-registered value in the position data.
Data other than the target position, such as speed, acceleration/deceleration and positioning band, are set using
values in the position table stored in the controller. Set position data by referring to the operation manual for the
controller.
Up to 768 sets of positioning data can be specified.
The key ROBO Cylinder functions that can be controlled in this mode are summarized in the table below.
