6.2.5 Pause
The actuator can be paused during movement using an external input signal (*STP).
The pause signal uses the contact b logic (always ON) to ensure safety.
Turning the *STP signal OFF causes the actuator to decelerate to a stop. When *STP is turned ON subsequently,
the actuator will resume the remaining movement.
(Note) The deceleration corresponds to the value set in the “Deceleration” field for the current position number
in the position table.
6.2.6 Zone Signal Output
The zone output is suitable for the following applications, because a signal can be output when the actuator
enters a specified zone during movement:
[1] Issue a trigger signal to surrounding equipment to reduce the tact time
[2] Prevent contact with surrounding equipment
[3] Use as a “simple ruler” in push & hold operation
A different method is used for the zone output signal, and for the position zone output signal, to set the zone
within which the signal will turn ON.
 Zone output signal (ZONE1)
Set the signal ON zone using parameters.
Parameter No. 1 = Zone boundary+, Parameter No. 2 = Zone boundary-
 Position zone output signal (PZONE)
Set the signal ON zone using the “Zone boundary-“ and “Zone boundary+” fields of the position table.
