6.1.13 Cam axis position at cam control switching 
The cam axis position is determined by the positional relationship of three values of "Cam axis one cycle 
current value", "Cam axis standard position" and "Cam axis feed current value". When the control has been 
switched to the cam control (CAMC (Cam control command) is on), defining the positions of two of these 
values restores the position of the remaining one value. 
Cam axis one cycle current value
Cam axis feed current value
Cam standard position
 
The following table lists the parameters required to be set for the cam axis position restoration. Refer to 
section 6.1.7 (3) for the settings.

(Used as the search 
starting point of cam 
pattern.) 
"Cam axis one cycle 
current value" is 
restored based on 
"Cam standard 
position" and "Cam 
axis feed current 
value". 
1: Cam standard 
position 
 
   
(Note) 
"Cam standard 
position" is restored 
based on "Cam axis 
one cycle current 
value" and "Cam axis 
feed current value". 
2: Cam axis feed 
current value 
   
(Note) 
   
(Note) 
"Cam axis feed 
current value" is 
restored based on 
"Cam axis one cycle 
current value" and 
"Cam standard 
position". 
: Required 
 
Note. Set this parameter when [Cam control data No. 3] is set to "1".
