The relationships of movement command inputs/position complete outputs and corresponding position numbers are
shown below.
For easier identification, each input/output signal has a name similar to the naming convention used with air cylinders.
However, note that the target position is determined by the value set in the [Target position] field under each position
number. Therefore, changing the magnitude correlation of the settings in Nos. 0 to 2 will change the meanings of the
corresponding input/output signals.
Accordingly, the settings in the respective position numbers should match the semantic meanings of the
corresponding signal names used in this operation manual, unless doing so will pose a problem.
Input signal Output signal Target position
Rear end move (ST0) Rear end complete (PE0)
Setting in the [Target position] field under
position No. 0 Example: 5 mm
Front end move (ST1) Front end complete (PE1)
Setting in the [Target position] field under
position No. 1 Example: 390 mm
Intermediate point move (ST2) Intermediate point complete (PE2)
Setting in the [Target position] field under
position No. 2 Example: 200 mm

This example assumes the use of a slider type actuator with a 400 mm stroke.
