( 3 ) Axis Type Selection
There are two types of position control:
Finite length position control:
Return and other operations are performed only within a specified
range, i.e., within a prescribed positioning interval.
Infinite length position control: Used for moving in one direction only.
• Resets the position to 0 after one rotation.
• Moves in one direction only, without resetting position after one rotation.
The axis type selection sets which of these types of position control is to be used. The settings for the
Axis Type Selection are listed in the following table.

Axis Type
Specify the position control method for the controlled axis.
0: Finite Length Axis
Set a finite length axis if control is performed within a limited
length or for an axis that uses infinite length control in one
moving direction only without resetting the position every
rotation.
1: Infinite Length Axis
Set an infinite length axis for an axis that uses infinite length
control while resetting the position every rotation.

length axis has been set for the axis type.
