9.2 Actuator Operation Pattern
Both linked axes 0 and 1 are operated in the position-number specification mode.
The operation pattern is specified below. Specifically, position No. 0 is specified to cause the actuator to
move to position No. 0 after completion of home return. The actuator pauses for 1 second in this position,
after which position No. 1 is specified to cause the actuator to move to position No. 1. The actuator
pauses for 1 second in this position, after which position No. 0 is specified. These steps are repeated to
make the actuator move back and forth between position Nos. 0 and 1.
9.3 Various Controller Settings
(1) Setting the axis number
