1. Outline
When an axis is positioned within the range given by the machine coordinate,
this function turns on the DO (position switch) signal. There are two types of
position switch. One is “normal type”. And another is “judging a passing
direction type”. (Hereafter, “High speed position switch” means both “normal
type” and “judging a passing direction type” if there is no special attention.)
Normal type
When an axis is positioned within the specified range, the signal of the
built-in I/O is turned on. When an axis is positioned out of the specified
range, the signal is turned off. As the interval to watch a signal is shorter
than that of the conventional type, this function makes it possible to watch
the axis position with higher precision.
Judging a passing direction type
This type position switch considers the direction to pass by the specified
position. When an axis passes by a specified point in a specified direction,
the signal of the built-in I/O is turned on. When an axis passes by another
specified point in a specified direction, the signal of the built-in I/O is turned
off. In case the point to turn on a signal is different from the point to turn
off, this type should be applied.
Specified range
Specified built-in DO signal = 1
Specified built-in DO signal = 0
Specify to turn on a signal in plus direction
In case passing in plus direction,
specified built-in DO signal = 1
In case passing in minus direction,
specified built-in DO signal = 0
Specify to turn off a signal in minus direction
