• What this field means is different in “positioning operation” and “push-motion operation.”
“Positioning
operation”:
In the proximity switch type, this field defines the width within which the movement complete signal
turns ON.
In the standard type, this field defines how far before the target position the movement complete
signal turns ON.
The factory setting is “0.1” mm.

Increasing the positioning band quickens
the starting of next sequence operation, and
consequently the tact time becomes shorter.
Set an optimal value by considering the
balance of the entire system.
The movement complete
signal turns ON here.

“Push-motion operation”:
This field defines the maximum push distance to be applied during
push-motion operation from the target position.
Consider the mechanical variation of the work and set an appropriate
positioning band so that positioning will not complete before the work is
contacted.
The work is contacted and push-motion
operation is deemed complete, so the
movement complete signal turns ON here.
