Zone ranges should be set in the position table.
While the operation corresponding to a position number is executed, the zone range set for the
position number is valid. It is kept effective also during the emergency stop unless the actuator
is operated or the memory of the origin is lost due to alarm.
(3) Setting values and signal output range
The zone output range varies depending on the difference between the value set for the
positive side of the zone and that for the negative side.
1) Value set for positive side > value set for negative side: Output signal turn ON in the range
from the value on negative side to that on positive side, and turns OFF out of the range
2) Value set for positive side < value set for negative side: Output signal turn OFF in the range
from the value on positive side to that on negative side, and turns ON out of the range
[Example of Line Axis]
[Example of rotary actuator of multi-rotation specification in index mode]
Caution: Since this signal becomes effective after the coordinate system is established after
the home return is completed, it would not be output just with the power turned ON.
