5.4.3 Position/Simple Direct Mode (Number of Occupied Bytes: 8)
In this mode, the actuator is operated by specifying position numbers. You can select whether to set the target
position directly as a value or use a value registered in the position data table, by switching a control signal
(PMOD signal).
For all data other than the target position, such as speed, acceleration/deceleration and positioning band, values
in the controller’s position table are used. Set desired position data by referring to the operation manual for the
controller.
Up to 768 position data points can be set.
The key functions that are available on Actuators controllable in this mode are shown in the table below.
