Description

This parameter defines the direction of an absolute motion task when the modulo position has been activated. For more details about absolute motion tasks, see .. For absolute motion tasks, you can only select a target position within the modulo range.

PL.MODPDIR Settings

Value	Motion	Description
0	Inside Range	The motor moves in a negative direction if the target position of the absolute motion task is less than the current position. The motor moves in positive direction if the target position of the absolute motion task is greater than the current position.
1	Positive	The motor always moves in a positive direction relative to the target position of the absolute motion task.
2	Negative	The motor always moves in a negative direction relative to the target position of the absolute motion task.
3	Shortest Distance	The motor always moves the shortest distance in order to reach the target position within the modulo-range.
