Example 1:
The first trigger pulse is to be output on digital output line 1 if the absolute position of axis 1 is
1.5 mm. A pulse should then be output on this line every time axis 1 has covered a distance of
0.1 µm in the positive direction. The last trigger pulse is to be output if the absolute axis
position is 2.5 mm.

Example 2:
The first trigger pulse is to be output on digital output line 2 if the absolute position of axis B is
0.4 mm. A pulse should then be output on this line every time axis B has covered a distance of
1 µm in the negative direction. The last trigger pulse is to be output if the absolute axis position
is 0.1 mm.

INFORMATION
The velocity setting of the axis must be appropriate for the distance setting (TriggerStep)
commanded by the
CTO
command. Recommended value:
Maximum velocity = distance * 20 kHz / 2
where 20 kHz is the servo cycle frequency of the C-863.12.

Configuring the "Single Position" Trigger Mode
The selected digital output line is active in
Single Position
trigger mode, when the axis position
has reached or exceeded a specified position (TriggerPosition).
The unit for TriggerPosition depends on the settings of the parameters 0xE and 0xF. Default is
mm.
