1.1 Overview
This programming manual describes the dedicated instructions, positioning control
parameters and positioning dedicated devices for mechanical system program
comprised of a virtual main shaft or mechanical module required to execute the
synchronous control in the Motion controller (SV22 virtual mode).
The following positioning control is possible in the Motion controller (SV22 virtual
mode).
Applicable CPU Number of positioning control axes
Q173DCPU (32 axes) Up to 32 axes
Q172DCPU (8 axes) Up to 8 axes
