No.
4) Counter No. to reset (SELECT 2: ON)
Resets the counter value to the initial value when the counter function is used in the selected file.
Set D0 to D7 to specify the counter No. to reset and turn ON SET IN.
In case two or more counter numbers are specified, all counters specified are reset.
Example: When the counter No. 0 to 3 are reset.
Turn ON D0, D1, D2, and D3 which represent the counter No. 0, 1, 2, and 3.
D0 to D7: Counter No. 0 to 7

5) Data number for Rank /External offset function (SELECT 0: ON)
The rank/external offset function allows to switch the marking characters (rank) or the coordinates (external
offset) using the input terminal D0 to D15. Configure the character or coordinate patterns to the data
number corresponding to D0 to D15 in advance. Specify which pattern you will mark from D0 to D15.
Specify the data number in the binary system as D0 to D15 and turn on SET IN (No. 2).
The data numbers corresponding to D0 to D15 are defined as follows according to the settings.
I/O input condition settings *
Rank: 4-bit × 4
Rank: 8-bit × 2
External offset: Lower 4 bits
External offset: Lower 8 bits
* You can also use the rank function together with the external offset function. If you use the same
terminal for both the rank and external offset at this time, the input status will be reflected to the data
number of both functions.
Example: Specify data number 15 when using lower 8 bits
Select "0000 1111", which represents 15 in a 8-bit binary system, by specifying ON/OFF of D0 to D7 as
shown in the below table. (D0 is the lowest digit number.)
D0 to D7: Data number (the lower 8 bits are used)
