• This function is used to execute continuous positioning control by specifying a repeat count.
• The repeat count is set in the "positioning repeat count area" in the unit memories. The
continuous positioning control can be executed in the range of 2 to 254 times or unlimitedly
according to the setting.
• The operation from the positioning control starting table to the E-point table is repeated.

If a dwell time of 0 is set for E-point control, i.e., the end point of positioning control, the unit
processes E-point control as P-point control, and finishes the operation after repeating the
positioning control three times continuously.

If the dwell time is set to a value other than 0 for E-point control, i.e., the end point of
positioning control, the control unit processes E-point control as C-point control, and executes
the positioning control after stopping for the specified dwell time (ms). The positioning unit
finishes the operation after repeating the positioning control three
times.
