6. Parameter Settings
6.2 Detail Explanation of Parameters
If you have changed any parameter, be sure to restart the controller via a software reset or reconnect the controller power.
6.2.1 Parameters Relating to Actuator Stroke Range
z Soft Limits (No.3/4 LIMM/LIML)
Set the + soft limit in parameter No. 3 and – soft limit in parameter No. 4.
Both parameters have been set to the effective actuator length at the factory. Change the parameter settings if necessary,
such as when an obstacle is present and collision between the actuator and obstacle must be prevented or when the actuator
must be operated beyond the effective length.
Exercise due caution when setting these parameters, as wrong settings will cause collision with the mechanical end.
The minimum setting unit is 0.01 mm.
(Note) To change these parameters, set values corresponding to positions that are 0.3 mm wider than the desired effective
range.
Example) Set the effective range to between 0 and 80 mm
Parameter No. 3 (+ side): 80.3
Parameter No. 4 (– side): -0.3
z Home Direction (No.5 ORG)
If not specified by the user, the home direction is set to the motor side before shipment.
If you must change the home direction after the actuator has been assembled to your equipment, change the setting of
parameter No. 5.
Also change the parameters for home offset, soft limits and default direction of excited phase signal detection, if necessary.
Caution: Rod-type actuators do not permit reversing of the home direction.
