Set a 24-bit integer (unit: 0.01 mm) based on
hexadecimal notation
Example) To specify +25.4 mm, set “0009ECH”
(“2540” in decimal notation).
(Notes)
Set position data within the soft stroke limits.
Specify the direction of push-motion operation
using DIR.
Even if positioning band is not set, the setting of
parameter No. 10, “Default positioning band” will
not be applied.

The current position data is output as a signed 24-
bit integer (unit: 0.01 mm) based on hexadecimal
notation
Example) To specify +25.4 mm, set “0009ECH”
(“2540” in decimal notation).
(Note)
A negative value is indicated by a two’s
complement. Accordingly, the most significant bit
becomes “1.”
