8-10 Precautions when Using Pulse
Outputs
When operating with absolute pulses, the movement direction (CW/CCW) is selected automatically
based on the relationship between the pulse output PV when the instruction is executed and the speci-
fied target position. The direction (CW/CCW) specified in an ACC(888), SPED(885), or PLS2(887)
instruction is ignored.
Pulse outputs will stop according to the PLC Setup when either the CW or CCW limit input signals turns
ON. It is also possible to select whether the defined origin will be cleared when a CW or CCW limit input
signal turns ON for a pulse output function.
The pulse output frequency of the Pulse I/O Module is determined by dividing the source clock fre-
quency (33,330 MHz) by an integer ratio. Consequently, there may be a slight difference between the
set frequency and the actual frequency.
And that difference increases as the frequency increases. The actual frequency can be calculated from
the following equations.

The INT function extracts an integer from the fraction. The non-integer remainder is rounded.
