1. OUTLINE
External workpiece number search function is improved in following 2 points.
1. Workpiece number range is extended from 1 to 9999.
2. Workpiece number search start signal is added.
2. DETAILS
1. In usual, workpiece range from 1 to 31 is available by using workpiece number search
signals(PN1-PN16).
The range is extended by using extended workpiece number search signals(EPN1-EPN13).
2. In usual, automatic operation is started after a program is searched by using ST signal.
Workpiece number search itself can be started by using EPNS signal.
3. SIGNALS
3.1 Extended workpiece number search signals
