When the LATC4 controller executes Step data No.0 (Return to Origin Position), the controller reset
signal will go high after the actuator has completed the [Return to Origin Position] operation. The
Multi-counter is reset based on this signal and the position will be set to zero.
When the [Sensor Origin] homing method is selected, the Origin Position of the sensor will be set to
zero.
When [Extended End Position] is set as Origin Position, the position at fully extended stroke is set to
zero. Therefore use the “OFFSET” function of the Multi-counter to adjust the displayed and output
position as required.
When the Origin Position is set to [Retracted End Position] or [Extended End Position], the Origin
Position will be approximately 0.3 mm away from their respective table mechanical end stop.
If another position, defined by stopping the table against an external mechanical stop, is used to
display the zero position in the Multi-counter, use a PLC, or a similar device capable of outputting the
reset signal to the Multi-counter, to reset the Multi-counter after the table has stopped against the
external mechanical stop.
Caution
In the CEU5 Multi-counter “Function mode” [FUNC.], set the “Pre-scale” [PRESCL] parameters
according to the connected Card Motor as follows.

Note 1) Since the CEU5 Multi-counter has a 6-digit display, the decimal
numbers will not be displayed when the resolution is set to 1.25.
The Multi-counter may lose pulses when a long counter cable is used or the Card Motor is driven at
high speed.
Refer to the CEU5 Multi-counter operation manual for setting details.
