E-point
control
This is a method of control
which is initiated up to an end
point, and is referred to as “E-
point control”.
This method is used for a first
speed
acceleration/deceleration.
P-point
control
This refers to control which
passes through a “Pass Point”,
and is called “P-point control”.
This method is used for a
second speed
acceleration/deceleration.
After the pulse output is
performed for a specified
movement amount, it shifts to
the E-point control.
C-point
control
This refers to control which
passes through a “Continuance
Point”, and is called “C-point
control”.
This method is used for
performing two successive first
speed positioning control with
different target speeds or
acceleration/deceleration times.
The time taken for transmitting
from the C-point control to E-
point control is specified as a
dwell time.
J-point
control
No speed change
This refers to control which
passes through a speed point
“JOG Operation Point”, and is
called “J-point control”.
After the start, it is controlled at
specified speeds.
Once the J-point positioning
contact turns on, the positioning
control starts.
When the J-point control
speed change flag is set, the
speed changes.
