(Note 1): As for the unit memories in which “positioning repeat count” is set, 1-word area is allocated for each axis.
8.3.2 Stop Operation During Repeat Operation
The unit operates as follows when the deceleration stop is executed during the repeat
operation.
When repeating E-point control
When the unit detects a deceleration stop, FP7 MC Unit stops the operation after repeating
the positioning control N+3 times.

(Note): The above figure shows the case that the dwell time is 0 ms.
When executing multiple positioning tables continuously
When FP7 MC Unit detects a deceleration stop, it stops the operation after repeating the
positioning control N+2 times (when the number of tables is 2) or N+1 times (when the
number of tables is 3 or more).
