*2. You can use the external inputs as latch inputs.
*3. You can use the external output as error counter reset outputs.
*4. These functions are supported when you also use the MC Function Module in the NJ/NX-series CPU Unit or the NY- series Industrial PC.
For details, refer to the motion control user’s manual for the connected CPU Unit or Industrial PC.
A Pulse Output Unit only outputs pulses during the control period based on commands received at a fixed period.
Target position calculations (distribution calculations) for acceleration/deceleration control or for each control period must be performed on the Controller.
