Caution
● After changing (writing) parameters, perform a software reset or power reboot so that the
set values can be reflected.
● The unit (deg) is applicable to the rotary actuator or lever-type gripper. Note that it will
be displayed as millimeter [mm] on the teaching tool.

These parameters are used set the zone in which zone signal (ZONE1 or ZONE2) turns ON in a
mode other than PIO patterns 1 to 3.
The minimum setting unit is 0.01mm (deg).
If a specific value is set to both zone boundary + and zone boundary -, the zone signal is not
output.
A setting sample is shown below.

[For linear axis]
[For rotary actuator in index mode]
Caution
● Unless the zone signal detection range is set at a value above minimum resolution, a
signal will not be output.
● The minimum resolution can be calculated with the equation below.
Minimum resolution [mm/pulse] = Actuator lead [mm/r] / Encoder resolution [pulse/r]
