Position Reference

There are two methods of setting the position reference: Direct designation, which directly
sets the position reference in OL††12, and indirect designation, which specifies the num-
ber of the position buffer from which the position reference is stored in OL††12.

There are two direct designation methods: The absolute position reference mode, in which
the absolute position is set in OL††12, and the incremental addition mode, in which the
present travel distance is added to the previous position reference value (previous value of
OL††12).

Table 2.14 shows the parameters relating to the position reference.

* 1. This parameter is invalid when the position reference value selection is the position buffer

(indirect designation).

* 2. The setting data differs according to the setting of the Position Reference Value Selection (bit

12 of OW††01) and the Position Reference Type (bit 14 of OW††01).

When indirect designation is used to specify the position buffer number, the positions stored in the
position buffer are treated as absolute positions.

When a motion command (OW††20) is not used, the position reference value set in OL††12 is
treated as an absolute position.

position data is to be set in the absolute posi-
tion mode or the incremental addition mode.
