! Coordinate Language List
The motion amount and coordinate values attached to the axis name are called “coor-
dinate language” in this book. The meanings of the coordinate language used in this
system are shown in the table below.
Important Points
1. The 32-bit integer data type is used when the motion amount or coordinate value
is designated by a variable.
(Ex.) ML0100
2. When there are fractions, insert zeroes for the number of places following the
decimal point.
(Ex.) Use 300000 to designate 300.000 when the number of decimal places = 3.
However, the servo parameter area (IWCxxx, OWCxxx) in the I, O registers
cannot be used for variables of the motion amount or coordinate value.
! Number of Simultaneously Controlled Axes
The number of simultaneously controlled axes designated from the motion program is
shown in the following chart.
