Effects of the setting
● FM 352 evaluates the zero mark signal and reference point switch based on the direction
of movement of the axis.
– It evaluates the positive edges when the axis moves in positive direction.
– It evaluates the negative edges when the axis moves in negative direction.
● It sets the actual position to the value of the reference point coordinate.
● The working range is physically shifted on the axis.
● The various points retain their original values, but are now at new physical positions.
● Cam status changes that would normally trigger a hardware interrupt can be lost.
● The SYNC bit is set in the checkback signals.
