[Example of stop position when the ST* signal is turned OFF by the LS* signal]
If the detection range is set at a position before the original deceleration start position, the
actuator cannot reach the target position.
Caution: (1) If the ST* signal for the same position is turned ON after the positioning is
completed, the LS* signal remains ON.
(2) LS* Signal turns ON once it gets into the detection range. Therefore, it will also
turns ON while the actuator is in operation if the setting detection range is wide.
(3) Make sure to set ST* Signals interlocked so two or more signals will not turn ON
at the same time. If two or more ST* signals are input simultaneously, they will
be executed according to the following priorities: ST0 → ST1.
(4) LS* signal would not be output if the detection range is set less than the
minimum resolution.
