within a registered zone.
The ZONE signals (/Z0 to /Z2) are assigned to output signals /POUT0 to /POUT2 on CN1.
7.5.1
ZONE Table and ZONE Signals
You can register the desired zones in the ZONE table. The ZONE table consists of settings for
the ZONE numbers (ZONE), ZONE N values (ZONE N), and ZONE P values (ZONE P). You can
register up to eight zones.
The ZONE numbers identify the registered zones.
ZONE N is the lower limit of the ZONE and ZONE P is the upper limit of the ZONE. The setting
conditions for ZONE N and ZONE P are given in the following table.
The ZONE signals indicate the ZONE number. If the current value is within a zone registered in
the ZONE table, the corresponding ZONE number is output on the ZONE signals.
You can use the ZONE numbers as required, e.g., to trigger operations related to positioning.
Note: 1: Signal is ON (active), 0: Signal is OFF (inactive).
