6.3. Positioning Operation
6.3.1. Positioning Command
The Driver Unit Model EDD incorporates the positioning commands. There are two ways for execution of
the positioning commands.
Input directly the command via RS-232C communication.
Preprogram the positioning commands and the operational conditions and store them in the
program channels. Specify channel numbers by the PRG0 to PRG7 inputs (Internal channel
selection) and input the RUN input (Start program) to execute these programs.
The positioning command and related parameters are shown in the “ Table 6-5: Positioning command and
parameter.” Refer to “9. Details of Command and Parameter” for more details.
