Zone Monitoring

This function detects whether the command position or actual position of an axis is in the specified
range (zone). Use the MC_ZoneSwitch (Zone Monitor) instruction to specify the first position and last
position of the zone to check. The InZone output variable for the Zone Monitor instruction will change to
TRUE when the position of the axis enters the specified zone. You can also specify multiple zones for a
single axis. Zones can overlap.
For details on zone monitoring, refer to the MC_ZoneSwitch (Zone Monitor) instruction in the NY-series
Motion Control Instructions Reference Manual (Cat. No. W561).
