The SLA command is used to set the number of attempts to complete the StepNLoop operation.  The operation is completed when the position of the axis is within the tolerance range of the target position (SLT).  If after the number of attempts is reached, and the axis position is not within the tolerance range, the StepNLoop operation is canceled, and an error status is output


Applies to: CMD-4CR, CMD-4EX-SA, PMX-4EX-SA, PMX-4ET-SA, PMX-2ED-SA, PMX-2EX
