Positioning Operation
The operation starts at oper-
ation speed (1) by the start
command.
If interrupt input (1) turns ON
during operation, the speed
will decelerate to operation
speed (2).
The operation will continue at
operation speed (2) until
interrupt input (2) turns ON.
Linear interpolation
The workpiece will travel to
the target position at the
specified vector speed (inter-
polation operation).
*10
*11
Circular interpolation
The workpiece will travel to
the specified target position
(x, y) along an arc at the
specified circumferential
speed.
The center coordinate or
radius can be specified.

*8. "Without acceleration/deceleration" or "With acceleration/deceleration" can be selected in the
variable-speed operation acceleration/deceleration setting.
*9. Operates with acceleration/deceleration.
*10. When interpolation instructions are consecutively set in the program, it will immediately shift to the
