Target Position

Absolute position movement

Specified absolute position

Relative position movement

Current position + movement amount

Acceleration/deceleration absolute position movement/grip

Movement amount + limit width

Acceleration/deceleration relative position movement/grip

Current position + movement amount + limit width

Constant speed movement/grip (close) with ZON/Constant speed movement/grip (close)

+ soft limit position (Note1)

Constant speed movement/grip (open) with ZON/Constant speed movement/grip (open)

- soft limit position (Note1)
