Specify the repetition count for this cycle. Values from 0 to 32767 can
be specified. When 0 or 1 is specified, the cycle is executed once.
Specify the number (1 to 999) of the cycle to be executed after this cycle.
When no connection cycle exists because of the last cycle, specify 0.
Specify the number of data items per cycle. Valid values are from 1 to
32767.
When a fixed data item is specified, the fixed data is repeated for the
specified number of times in one cycle.

The bits from t1 to t4, corresponding to the 1st to 4th axes, have the
following meanings:
0: Distribution data is always constant.
1: Distribution data is variable or fixed.
When the distribution data is variable or fixed, the bits from r1 to r4,
corresponding to the 1st to 4th axes, have the following meanings:
0: Distribution data is read forward.
1: Distribution data is read backwards.
Because the data consists of bits, it is necessary to use a binary–coded
decimal value when setting it using the macro compiler and macro
executor.
Example)
When constant data is assigned to the 1st and 2nd axes and variable data
is assigned to the 3rd and 4th axes, #20004 = 12; (t4 and t3: 0, t2 and t1: 1)
S Constant data
When the corresponding data type bit (t4 to t1) is 0, specify
“distribution data value”.
S Variable data
When the corresponding data type bit (t4 to t1) is 1 and the total
number of fixed data items = 0, specify “(Storing start data variable
No. of the distribution data)/10”.
S Fixed data
When the corresponding data type bit (t4 to t1) is 1 and the total
number of fixed data items is other than 0, specify “(Storing start data
variable No. of the distribution data)/10”.
The applicable value for the variable data and fixed data is 2001 to
8553. It is not possible to start storing data in the executable format
from a variable No. that is not a multiple of 10.
To read the distribution data backwards, set the variable No. of the data
to be distributed last. For example, to read the distribution data in
#25000 to #25999 backwards, set 25000 as the data assignment
variable.
Set the length of the fixed data for the cycle.
The first address of the fixed data must be specified by the data
assignment variable. When the total number of fixed data items = 0 and
the corresponding data type bit (t4 to t1) is 1, the data is regarded as a
variable data.
