(2) Infinite rotation control
When shortcut selection is enabled for continuous operation in the same direction, it is possible
to perform continuous rotation in the same manner as a motor. Proceed as follows to perform
continuous operation.
[Operation examples]
This example shows 2 rotations, finally stopping at position No. 4.
(1) Expand the positioning width setting of Position No. 1 to 3 to a position forward of the
position where deceleration starts.
(2) If positioning is performed at Position No. 1, the positioning complete signal PEND turns
ON before deceleration starts.
Position No. 2 positioning is performed by turning ON the PEND signal. Similarly,
positioning is performed in the order of position No. 3 → 1 → 2 → 3 → 4. In normal
positioning, the position data commanded afterward is always prioritized, which enables
continuous rotation.
(3) At this point, if the speed setting is the same for Position No. 1 to 4, it is possible to rotate
at the same speed and set the stop position to No. 4. The number of rotations is
determined by how many times positions No. 1 to 3 are repeated.

Enter the position data as 1 deg = 1
mm. (Ex) 1.2 is treated as 1.2 deg.
