ing for each axis.

The task number is a number used to identify the four individual
tasks from 0 to 3. Since task 0 is the main task, tasks numbers from
1 to 3 can be specified.
(2) Program number
The program number is a number used to identify the 100 individual
programs from 0 to 99.
(3) Start type
This specifies whether to start a new task or suspended task. Set to 0
when executing a new task, and set to 1 when restarting a suspended
task.

number which has been suspended can be specified.)
