(5) Program
Just like positioning, this is also a test operation mode. In the program mode, however, you can set a desired
sequence of movement. In the position number input area, enter position numbers (0 to 15) or “R” (a symbol
specifying a repeat of the preceding numbers), and then click Start.
Up to 17 steps can be specified, including “R.”
If a blank field exists, all subsequent steps are considered invalid. All steps after “R” are also considered
invalid.
Fig. 5.12 Program Mode
Clicking Start will start the specified movement, and the button text will change to “Stop.” The button text will
change back to “Start” when the movement ends or the button is clicked again. The sequence set in the
program mode will not be saved to the controller or a file.
(6) Servo, Home and Alarm buttons
Fig. 5.13 Servo Home and Alarm Buttons
[1] Servo button
This button lets you turn on/off the servo.
When the servo is on, a blue lamp illuminates on the button.
After homing, you can turn off the servo, move the actuator manually and then click Teach to capture a
desired position.
Note: Closing the software when the servo is off will keep the servo in the off state, thus disabling the
PIO operation. To reset the servo, restart the software with the controller connected, or reconnect
the controller power.
[2] Home button
This button lets you perform homing.
Once homing is complete, a green lamp will illuminate on the button.
