8.2 Detail Explanation of Parameters
Caution: • If parameters are changed, provide software reset or reconnect the power to
reflect the setting values.
• The unit (deg) is for rotary actuator and lever type gripper. Pay attention that
it is displayed in mm in the teaching tools.

These parameters are used set the zone in which zone signal (ZONE1 or ZONE2) turns ON in
a mode other than PIO patterns 1 to 3 (ZONE2 is valid only in the pulse-train control mode).
The minimum setting unit is 0.01mm (deg).
If a specific value is set to both zone setting + and zone setting -, the zone signal is not output.
A setting sample is shown below.

Caution: The zone detection range would not output unless the value exceeds that of
the minimum resolution (actuator lead length / No. of Encoder Pluses).
