1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
1.1 Introduction
The MR-J2S-CP AC servo amplifier with built-in positioning functions is the MR-J2S-A general-purpose
AC servo amplifier which incorporate single-axis positioning functions. These functions perform
positioning operation by merely setting the position data (target positions), servo motor speeds,
acceleration and deceleration time constants, etc. to point tables as if setting them in parameters. The
servo amplifier is the most appropriate to configure a program-free, simple positioning system or to
simplify a system, for example.
There are 3 points of point tables as standard, and they can be increased up to 31 points by using the MR
Configurator (servo configuration software).
You can choose a configuration suitable for your purpose, e.g. simple positioning system using external
I/O signals (DI/O), operation using DI/O and RS-422 serial communication, or multi drop operation using
RS-422 serial communication.
All servo motors are equipped with an absolute position encoder as standard. An absolute position
detection system can be configured by merely adding a battery to the servo amplifier. Once the home
position has been set, home position return is not required at power on, alarm occurrence, etc.
The MR-J2S-CP AC servo amplifier with positioning function is made easier to use and higher in function
by using it with the MR Configurator (servo configuration software).

2. INSTALLATION
2.4 Cable stress
(1) The way of clamping the cable must be fully examined so that flexing stress and cable's own weight
stress are not applied to the cable connection.
(2) For use in any application where the servo motor moves, fix the cables (encoder, power supply, brake)
supplied with the servo motor, and flex the optional encoder cable or the power supply and brake
wiring cables. Use the optional encoder cable within the flexing life range. Use the power supply and
brake wiring cables within the flexing life of the cables.
(3) Avoid any probability that the cable sheath might be cut by sharp chips, rubbed by a machine corner
or stamped by workers or vehicles.
(4) The flexing lives of the cables are shown below. In actuality, provide a little allowance for these values.
For installation on a machine where the servo motor will move, the flexing radius should be made as
large as possible. Refer to section 13.4 for the flexing life.

3. SIGNALS AND WIRING
Any person who is involved in wiring should be fully competent to do the work.
Before wiring, turn off the power and wait for 15 minutes or more until the charge
lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P and N is safe with a
voltage tester and others. Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition,
always confirm from the front of the servo amplifier whether the charge lamp is off
WARNING or not.
Ground the servo amplifier and the servo motor securely.
Do not attempt to wire the servo amplifier and servo motor until they have been
installed. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
The cables should not be damaged, stressed excessively, loaded heavily, or
pinched. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
Wire the equipment correctly and securely. Otherwise, the servo motor may
misoperate, resulting in injury.
Connect cables to correct terminals to prevent a burst, fault, etc.
Ensure that polarity ( , ) is correct. Otherwise, a burst, damage, etc. may occur.
The surge absorbing diode installed to the DC relay designed for control output
should be fitted in the specified direction. Otherwise, the signal is not output due to
a fault, disabling the forced stop (EMG) and other protective circuits.

torque limit is executed
The torque limit is available in two types: internal torque limit set in parameters and analog torque limit
(TLA) using analog input signal. This function limits torque on the assumption that the maximum torque
of the servo motor is 100%.
(1) Internal torque limits 1, 2

Use parameter No.28 and 29 to set the internal torque limit values. The following graph shows the
torque relative to the setting.
Max. torque

(2) Analog torque limit (TLA)

By applying a voltage (0 to 10V) to the analog torque limit (TLA) terminal, limit values can be set from
outside consecutively. The following graph shows the relationship between input voltage and limit
value.
Depending on the servo amplifier, the limit value has about 5% variations to the input voltage. As this
may not cause torque to be limited sufficiently at less than 0.05V, use this function at the voltage of
0.05V or more.
Refer to the following diagram when using the 15V power output (P15R) of the servo amplifier:

(3) External torque limit selection (TL), internal torque limit selection (TL2)
To use the external torque limit selection (TL) and internal torque limit selection (TL2), make them
available using the MR Configurator (servo configuration software) (refer to chapter 6).
These input signals may be used to choose the torque limit values made valid.

(4) External torque limit offset (parameter No.26)

Using parameter No.26, the offset voltage can be set relative to the input voltage of the analog torque
limit (TLA). The setting is between 999 to 999mV.
(5) Selection of rotation direction for torque limit execution (parameter No.59)
Using parameter No.59, the rotation direction for torque limit execution can be selected.

3.5 Alarm occurrence timing chart
When an alarm has occurred, remove its cause, make sure that the operation
signal is not being input, ensure safety, and reset the alarm before restarting
CAUTION operation.
As soon as an alarm occurs, turn off Servo-on (SON) and power off.
When an alarm occurs in the servo amplifier, the base circuit is shut off and the servo motor is coated to a
stop. Switch off the main circuit power supply in the external sequence. To reset the alarm, switch the
control circuit power supply from off to on, press the "SET" button on the current alarm screen, or turn
the reset (RES) from off to on. However, the alarm cannot be reset unless its cause is removed.

If operation is repeated by switching control circuit power off, then on to reset the overcurrent
(AL.32), overload 1 (AL.50) or overload 2 (AL.51) alarm after its occurrence, without removing
its cause, the servo amplifier and servo motor may become faulty due to temperature rise.
Securely remove the cause of the alarm and also allow about 30 minutes for cooling before
resuming operation.
(2) Regenerative alarm
If operation is repeated by switching control circuit power off, then on to reset the regenerative
(AL.30) alarm after its occurrence, the external regenerative resistor will generate heat,
resulting in an accident.
(3) Instantaneous power failure
Undervoltage (AL.10) occurs when the input power is in either of the following statuses.
A power failure of the control circuit power supply continues for 60ms or longer and the
control circuit is not completely off.
The bus voltage dropped to 200VDC or less for the MR-J2S- CP, or to 158VDC or less for the
MR-J2S- CP1.
(4) Incremental system
When an alarm occurs, the home position is lost. When resuming operation after deactivating
the alarm, make a home position return.

3.7 Input power supply circuit
Always connect a magnetic contactor (MC) between the main circuit power supply
and L1, L2, and L3 of the servo amplifier, and configure the wiring to be able to shut
down the power supply on the side of the servo amplifier’s power supply. If a
CAUTION magnetic contactor (MC) is not connected, continuous flow of a large current may

3.7.3 Power-on sequence
(1) Power-on procedure

1) Always wire the power supply as shown in above section 3.7.1 using the magnetic contactor with
the main circuit power supply (three-phase 200V: L1, L2, L3, single-phase 230V single-phase
100V: L1, L2). Configure up an external sequence to switch off the magnetic contactor as soon as an
alarm occurs.
2) Switch on the control circuit power supply L11, L21 simultaneously with the main circuit power
supply or before switching on the main circuit power supply. If the main circuit power supply is not
on, the display shows the corresponding warning. However, by switching on the main circuit power
supply, the warning disappears and the servo amplifier will operate properly.
3) The servo amplifier can accept the servo-on (SON) about 1 to 2s after the main circuit power supply
is switched on. Therefore, when servo-on (SON) is switched on simultaneously with the main circuit
power supply, the base circuit will switch on in about 1 to 2s, and the ready (RD) will switch on in
further about 20ms, making the servo amplifier ready to operate. (Refer to paragraph (2) of this
section.)
4) When the reset (RES) is switched on, the base circuit is shut off and the servo motor shaft coasts.

(3) Forced stop
Provide an external forced stop circuit to ensure that operation can be stopped and
CAUTION power switched off immediately.
Forced stop (EMG) can be used by making device setting on the MR Configurator (servo configuration
software).
Make up a circuit which shuts off main circuit power as soon as EMG-SG are opened at a forced stop.
To ensure safety, always install an external forced stop switch across EMG-SG. By disconnecting
EMG-SG, the dynamic brake is operated to bring the servo motor to a sudden stop. At this time, the
display shows the servo forced stop warning (AL.E6).
During ordinary operation, do not use the external forced stop (EMG) to alternate stop and run.
The servo amplifier life may be shortened.

3.8 Connection of servo amplifier and servo motor
3.8.1 Connection instructions
Insulate the connections of the power supply terminals to prevent an electric

WARNING shock.
Connect the wires to the correct phase terminals (U, V, W) of the servo amplifier
and servo motor. Otherwise, the servo motor will operate improperly.
CAUTION
Do not connect AC power supply directly to the servo motor. Otherwise, a fault
may occur.
POINT
Do not apply the test lead bars or like of a tester directly to the pins of the
connectors supplied with the servo motor. Doing so will deform the pins,
causing poor contact.
The connection method differs according to the series and capacity of the servo motor and whether or not
the servo motor has the electromagnetic brake. Perform wiring in accordance with this section.
(1) For grounding, connect the earth cable of the servo motor to the protective earth (PE) terminal of the
servo amplifier and connect the ground cable of the servo amplifier to the earth via the protective
earth of the control box. Do not connect them directly to the protective earth of the control panel.

4.1.2 Startup
WARNING Do not operate the switches with wet hands. You may get an electric shock.
Before starting operation, check the parameters. Some machines may perform
unexpected operation.
Take safety measures, e.g. provide covers, to prevent accidental contact of hands
and parts (cables, etc.) with the servo amplifier heat sink, regenerative resistor,
CAUTION servo motor, etc.since they may be hot while power is on or for some time after
power-off. Their temperatures may be high and you may get burnt or a parts may
damaged.
During operation, never touch the rotating parts of the servo motor. Doing so can
cause injury.
Connect the servo motor with a machine after confirming that the servo motor operates properly alone.
For startup reference, a single machine structure will be described. Refer to this section and start up the
machine safely.

4. OPERATION
(2) Startup procedure

(a) Power on
1) Switch off the servo-on (SON).
2) When main circuit power/control circuit power is switched on, "PoS" (Current position) appears
on the servo amplifier display.
In the absolute position detection system, first power-on results in the absolute position lost
(AL.25) alarm and the servo system cannot be switched on. This is not a failure and takes place
due to the uncharged capacitor in the encoder.
The alarm can be deactivated by keeping power on for a few minutes in the alarm status and
then switching power off once and on again.
Also in the absolute position detection system, if power is switched on at the servo motor speed
of 500r/min or higher, position mismatch may occur due to external force or the like. Power must
therefore be switched on when the servo motor is at a stop.
(b) Test operation
Using jog operation in the "test operation mode" of the MR Configurator (servo configuration
software), confirm that the servo motor operates at the slowest speed. (Refer to section 6.7.1, 7.9.2)
(c) Parameter setting
Set the parameters according to the structure and specifications of the machine. Refer to chapter 5
for the parameter definitions and to sections 6.4 and 7.6 for the setting method.

4. OPERATION
4.2.6 Automatic continuous operation
(1) What is automatic continuous operation?

By merely choosing one point table and making a start (ST1 or ST2), operation can be performed in
accordance with the point tables having consecutive numbers.
Automatic operation is available in two types: varied speed operation and automatic continuous
positioning operation.
Either type may be selected as follows.
(a) In absolute value command system or incremental value command system
Point table setting
Dwell Auxiliary function
Automatic continuous Speed changing operation
operation Automatic continuous 0 1
positioning operation 1 or more 1
(b) In absolute value command /incremental value command specifying system

Point table setting
Auxiliary function
Dwell When position data is When position data is
absolute value incremental value
Automatic continuous Speed changing operation
operation Automatic continuous 0 1 3
positioning operation 1 or more 1 3
(2) Varied speed operation

Speed during positioning operation can be changed by setting the auxiliary function of the point table.
Use the number of point tables equal to the number of speeds to be set.
By setting "1" to the auxiliary function, operation is performed at the speed set in the next point table
during positioning. The position data valid at this time is the data selected at start and the
acceleration and deceleration time constants of the subsequent point tables are made invalid.
By setting "1" to the auxiliary function of up to point table No.30, operation can be performed at a
maximum of 31 speeds. Set "0" to the auxiliary function of the last point table.
When performing varied speed operation, always set "0" to the dwell. If "1" or more is set, automatic
continuous positioning operation is made valid.
The following table gives a setting example.
Point table No. Dwell [ms] (Note 1) Auxiliary function Variable speed operation

4.4 Manual home position return mode
4.4.1 Outline of home position return
Home position return is performed to match the command coordinates with the machine coordinates. In
the incremental system, home position return is required every time input power is switched on. In the
absolute position detection system, once home position return is done at the time of installation, the
current position is retained if power is switched off. Hence, home position return is not required when
power is switched on again.
This servo amplifier has the home position return methods given in this section. Choose the most
appropriate method for your machine structure and application.
This servo amplifier has the home position return automatic return function which executes home
position return by making an automatic return to a proper position if the machine has stopped beyond or
at the proximity dog. Manual motion by jog operation or the like is not required.

Proximity dog (DOG) that has detected the rear end of a proximity dog.
Hence, if a home position return is made at the creep speed of 100r/min, an
error of 200 pulses will occur in the home position. The error of the home
position is larger as the creep speed is higher.
The position where the axis, which had started decelerating at the front end of a proximity dog, has
moved the after-proximity dog moving distance and home position shift distance after it passed the rear
end is defined as a home position. A home position return that does not depend on the Z-phase signal can
be made.

4.4.10 Home position return automatic return function
If the current position is at or beyond the proximity dog in the home position return using the proximity
dog, this function starts home position return after making a return to the position where the home
position return can be made.
(1) When the current position is at the proximity dog

When the current position is at the proximity dog, an automatic return is made before home position
return.
Home position return direction Proximity dog

Makes an automatic return start position
to a position before the
proximity dog, then executes
home position return at this position.
(2) When the current position is beyond the proximity dog

At a start, a motion is made in the home position return direction and an automatic return is made on
detection of the stroke end (LSP or LSN). The motion stops past the front end of the proximity dog,
and home position return is resumed at that position. If the proximity dog cannot be detected, the
motion stops on detection of the opposite LSP or LSN and home position return incomplete warning
(AL. 90) occurs.

POINT
You cannot perform automatic positioning from outside the position data
setting range to the home position. In this case, make a home position
return again using a manual home position return.
If this function is used when returning to the home position again after performing a manual home
position return after a power-on and deciding the home position, automatic positioning can be carried out
to the home position at high speed. In an absolute position system, manual home position return is not
required after power-on.
Please perform a manual home position return beforehand after a power-on.

Encoder cable
When fabricating, refer to (2), section 14.1.4.
(4) Outline of absolute position detection data communication

For normal operation, as shown below, the encoder consists of a detector designed to detect a position
within one revolution and a cumulative revolution counter designed to detect the number of
revolutions.
The absolute position detection system always detects the absolute position of the machine and keeps
it battery-backed, independently of whether the general-purpose programming controller power is on
or off. Therefore, once the home position is defined at the time of machine installation, home position
return is not needed when power is switched on thereafter.
If a power failure or a fault occurs, restoration is easy.
Also, the absolute position data, which is battery-backed by the super capacitor in the encoder, can be
retained within the specified period (cumulative revolution counter value retaining time) if the cable is
unplugged or broken.

5.2 Detailed explanation
5.2.1 Electronic gear
CAUTION False setting will result in unexpected fast rotation, causing injury.
POINT
This parameter is made valid when power is switched off, then on after
setting, or when the controller reset has been performed.
1 CMX
The range of the electronic gear setting is 1000. If you set
10 CDV
any value outside this range, a parameter error (A37) occurs.
After setting the parameter No.4, 5 value, switch power off, then on to
make that setting valid.
(1) Concept of electronic gear

Use the electronic gear (parameters No.4, 5) to make adjustment so that the servo amplifier setting
matches the moving distance of the machine. Also, by changing the electronic gear value, the machine
can be moved at any multiplication ratio to the moving distance on the servo amplifier.

5. PARAMETERS
5.2.5 Changing the stop pattern using a limit switch
The servo amplifier is factory-set to make a sudden stop when the limit switch or software limit is made
valid. When a sudden stop is not required, e.g. when there is an allowance from the limit switch
installation position to the permissible moving range of the machine, a slow stop may be selected by
changing the parameter No.22 setting.
Parameter No. 22 setting Description
0 (initial value) Droop pulses are reset to make a stop. (Sudden stop)
1 Droop pulses are drawn out to make a slow stop. (Slow stop)
5.2.6 Alarm history clear
The alarm history can be confirmed by using the MR Configurator (Set-up Software) or communication
function. The servo amplifier stores one current alarm and five past alarms from when its power is
switched on first. To control alarms which will occur during operation, clear the alarm history using
parameter No.16 (alarm history clear) before starting operation. Clearing the alarm history automatically
returns to “ 0 ”.
This parameter is made valid by switching power off, then on after setting.
Parameter No. 16
Alarm history clear

0: Invalid (not cleared)
1: Valid (cleared)
5.2.7 Rough match output
Rough match (CPO) is output when the command remaining distance reaches the value set in parameter
No. 12 (rough match output range). The set remaining distance is 0 to 65535 [ 10STM m].

5.2.8 Software limit
A limit stop using a software limit is made as in stroke end operation. When a motion goes beyond the
setting range, the motor is stopped and servo-locked. This function is made valid at power-on but made
invalid during home position return. This function is made invalid when the software limit setting is
the same as the software limit setting. A parameter error (AL. 37) will occur if the software limit
setting is less than the software limit setting.

8.2 Auto tuning
8.2.1 Auto tuning mode
The servo amplifier has a real-time auto tuning function which estimates the machine characteristic (load
inertia moment ratio) in real time and automatically sets the optimum gains according to that value. This
function permits ease of gain adjustment of the servo amplifier.
(1) Auto tuning mode 1

The servo amplifier is factory-set to the auto tuning mode 1.
In this mode, the load inertia moment ratio of a machine is always estimated to set the optimum gains
automatically.
The following parameters are automatically adjusted in the auto tuning mode 1.
Parameter No. Abbreviation Name

7 PG1 Position control gain 1
34 GD2 Ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor inertia moment
36 VG1 Speed control gain 1
38 VIC Speed integral compensation
POINT
The auto tuning mode 1 may not be performed properly if the following
conditions are not satisfied.
Time to reach 2000r/min is the acceleration/deceleration time constant of
5s or less.
Speed is 150r/min or higher.
The ratio of load inertia moment to motor inertia moment is not more than
100 times.
The acceleration/deceleration torque is 10% or more of the rated torque.
Under operating conditions which will impose sudden disturbance torque
during acceleration/deceleration or on a machine which is extremely loose,
auto tuning may not function properly, either. In such cases, use the auto
tuning mode 2 or manual mode 1,2 to make gain adjustment.
(2) Auto tuning mode 2

Use the auto tuning mode 2 when proper gain adjustment cannot be made by auto tuning mode 1.
Since the load inertia moment ratio is not estimated in this mode, set the value of a correct load
inertia moment ratio (parameter No. 34).
The following parameters are automatically adjusted in the auto tuning mode 2.

8- 3

Auto tuning selection
When a servo motor is accelerated/decelerated, the load inertia moment ratio estimation section always
estimates the load inertia moment ratio from the current and speed of the servo motor. The results of
estimation are written to parameter No. 34 (load inertia moment ratio). These results can be confirmed on
the status display screen of the servo amplifier display section.
If the value of the load inertia moment ratio is already known or if estimation cannot be made properly,
chose the "auto tuning mode 2" (parameter No.3 : 2 ) to stop the estimation of the load inertia
moment ratio (Switch in above diagram turned off), and set the load inertia moment ratio (parameter No.
34) manually.
From the preset load inertia moment ratio (parameter No. 34) value and response level (The first digit of
parameter No. 3), the optimum control gains are automatically set on the basis of the internal gain tale.
The auto tuning results are saved in the EEP-ROM of the servo amplifier every 60 minutes since power-
on. At power-on, auto tuning is performed with the value of each control gain saved in the EEP-ROM
being used as an initial value.
POINT
If sudden disturbance torque is imposed during operation, the estimation of
the inertia moment ratio may malfunction temporarily. In such a case,
choose the "auto tuning mode 2" (parameter No. 3: 2 ) and set the
correct load inertia moment ratio in parameter No. 34.
When any of the auto tuning mode 1, auto tuning mode 2 and manual mode
1 settings is changed to the manual mode 2 setting, the current control
gains and load inertia moment ratio estimation value are saved in the EEP-
ROM.
8- 4
8.2.3 Adjustment procedure by auto tuning
Since auto tuning is made valid before shipment from the factory, simply running the servo motor
automatically sets the optimum gains that match the machine. Merely changing the response level
setting value as required completes the adjustment. The adjustment procedure is as follows.

END

8- 5
8.2.4 Response level setting in auto tuning mode
Set the response (The first digit of parameter No.3) of the whole servo system. As the response level
setting is increased, the track ability and settling time for a command decreases, but a too high response
level will generate vibration. Hence, make setting until desired response is obtained within the vibration-
free range.
If the response level setting cannot be increased up to the desired response because of machine resonance
beyond 100Hz, adaptive vibration suppression control (parameter No. 63) or machine resonance
suppression filter (parameter No. 61 62) may be used to suppress machine resonance. Suppressing
machine resonance may allow the response level setting to increase. Refer to section 9.3 for adaptive
vibration suppression control and section 9.2 for machine resonance suppression filter.

8.3 Manual mode 1 (simple manual adjustment)
If you are not satisfied with the adjustment of auto tuning, you can make simple manual adjustment with
three parameters.
8.3.1 Operation of manual mode 1
In this mode, setting the three gains of position control gain 1 (PG1), speed control gain 2 (VG2) and
speed integral compensation (VIC) automatically sets the other gains to the optimum values according to
these gains.

Therefore, you can adjust the model adaptive control system in the same image as the general PI control
system (position gain, speed gain, speed integral time constant). Here, the position gain corresponds to
PG1, the speed gain to VG2 and the speed integral time constant to VIC. When making gain adjustment
in this mode, set the load inertia moment ratio (parameter No. 34) correctly.
8.3.2 Adjustment by manual mode 1
POINT
If machine resonance occurs, adaptive vibration suppression control
(parameter No. 63) or machine resonance suppression filter (parameter No.

8.4 Interpolation mode
The interpolation mode is used to match the position control gains of the axes when performing the
interpolation operation of servo motors of two or more axes for an X-Y table or the like. In this mode, the
position control gain 2 and speed control gain 2 which determine command track ability are set manually
and the other parameter for gain adjustment are set automatically.

9. SPECIAL ADJUSTMENT FUNCTIONS
POINT
The functions given in this chapter need not be used generally. Use them
if you are not satisfied with the machine status after making adjustment
in the methods in chapter 8.
If a mechanical system has a natural resonance point, increasing the servo system response may cause
the mechanical system to produce resonance (vibration or unusual noise) at that resonance frequency.
Using the machine resonance suppression filter and adaptive vibration suppression control functions can
suppress the resonance of the mechanical system.

9.2 Machine resonance suppression filter
(1) Function
The machine resonance suppression filter is a filter function (notch filter) which decreases the gain of
the specific frequency to suppress the resonance of the mechanical system. You can set the gain
decreasing frequency (notch frequency) and gain decreasing depth.

You can use the machine resonance suppression filter 1 (parameter No. 61) and machine resonance

that if adaptive vibration suppression control is made valid, the machine resonance suppression filter
1 (parameter No. 61) is made invalid.

9- 2
POINT
If the frequency of machine resonance is unknown, decrease the notch
frequency from higher to lower ones in order. The optimum notch
frequency is set at the point where vibration is minimal.
A deeper notch has a higher effect on machine resonance suppression but
increases a phase delay and may increase vibration.
The machine characteristic can be grasped beforehand by the machine
analyzer on the MR Configurator (servo configuration software). This
allows the required notch frequency and depth to be determined.
Resonance may occur if parameter No. 61 62 is used to select a close
notch frequency and set a deep notch.
(b) Machine resonance suppression filter 2 (parameter No. 62)

The setting method of machine resonance suppression filter 2 (parameter No. 62) is the same as
that of machine resonance suppression filter 1 (parameter No. 61). However, the machine
resonance suppression filter 2 can be set independently of whether adaptive vibration suppression
control is valid or invalid.
9.3 Adaptive vibration suppression control
(1) Function
Adaptive vibration suppression control is a function in which the servo amplifier detects machine
resonance and sets the filter characteristics automatically to suppress mechanical system vibration.
Since the filter characteristics (frequency, depth) are set automatically, you need not be conscious of
the resonance frequency of a mechanical system. Also, while adaptive vibration suppression control is
valid, the servo amplifier always detects machine resonance, and if the resonance frequency changes,
it changes the filter characteristics in response to that frequency.

When machine resonance is large and frequency is low When machine resonance is small and frequency is high
POINT
The machine resonance frequency which adaptive vibration suppression
control can respond to is about 150 to 500Hz. Adaptive vibration
suppression control has no effect on the resonance frequency outside this
range. Use the machine resonance suppression filter for the machine
resonance of such frequency.
Adaptive vibration suppression control may provide no effect on a
mechanical system which has complex resonance characteristics or which
has too large resonance.
Under operating conditions in which sudden disturbance torque is imposed
during operation, the detection of the resonance frequency may malfunction
temporarily, causing machine vibration. In such a case, set adaptive
vibration suppression control to be "held" (parameter No. 63: 2 ) to fix
the characteristics of the adaptive vibration suppression control filter.
9- 3
(2) Parameters
The operation of adaptive vibration suppression control selection (parameter No.63).
Parameter No. 63
Adaptive vibration suppression control selection

Choosing "valid" or "held" in adaptive vibration suppression
control selection makes the machine resonance suppression
filter 1 (parameter No. 61) invalid.
0: Invalid
1: Valid
Machine resonance frequency is always detected to
generate the filter in response to resonance, suppressing
machine vibration.
2: Held
Filter characteristics generated so far is held, and detection of
machine resonance is stopped.
Adaptive vibration suppression control sensitivity selection
Set the sensitivity of detecting machine resonance.
0: Normal
1: Large sensitivity
POINT
Adaptive vibration suppression control is factory-set to be invalid
(parameter No. 63: 0000).
The filter characteristics generated are saved in the EEP-ROM every 60
minutes since power-on. At next power-on, vibration suppression control is
performed with this data saved in the EEP-ROM being used as an initial
value.
Setting the adaptive vibration suppression control sensitivity can change
the sensitivity of detecting machine resonance. Setting of "large sensitivity"
detects smaller machine resonance and generates a filter to suppress
machine vibration. However, since a phase delay will also increase, the
response of the servo system may not increase.
9.4 Low-pass filter
(1) Function
When a ballscrew or the like is used, resonance of high frequency may occur as the response of the
servo system is increased. To prevent this, the low-pass filter is factory-set to be valid for a torque
command. The filter frequency of this low-pass filter is automatically adjusted to the value in the
following expression.
Speed control gain 2 setting 10
Filter frequency(Hz)
2 (1 Ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor inertia moment setting 0.1)
(2) Parameter
Set the operation of the low-pass filter (parameter No. 63.)
Parameter No. 63
Low-pass filter selection

0: Valid (automatic adjustment) initial value
1: Invalid
POINT
In a mechanical system where rigidity is extremely high and resonance is
difficult to occur, setting the low-pass filter to be "invalid" may increase
the servo system response to shorten the settling time.
9- 4
9.5 Gain changing function
This function can change the gains. You can change between gains during rotation and gains during stop
or can use an external signal to change gains during operation.
9.5.1 Applications
This function is used when.

(1) You want to increase the gains during servo lock but decrease the gains to reduce noise during rotation.
(2) You want to increase the gains during settling to shorten the stop settling time.
(3) You want to change the gains using an external signal to ensure stability of the servo system since the
load inertia moment ratio varies greatly during a stop (e.g. a large load is mounted on a carrier).

10. INSPECTION
Before starting maintenance and/or inspection, turn off the power and wait for 15
minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage
between P and N is safe with a voltage tester and others. Otherwise, an electric
shock may occur. In addition, always confirm from the front of the servo amplifier
WARNING whether the charge lamp is off or not.
Any person who is involved in inspection should be fully competent to do the work.
Otherwise, you may get an electric shock. For repair and parts replacement,
contact your safes representative.
POINT
Do not test the servo amplifier with a megger (measure insulation
resistance), or it may become faulty.
Do not disassemble and/or repair the equipment on customer side.
(1) Inspection
It is recommended to make the following checks periodically.
(a) Check for loose terminal block screws. Retighten any loose screws.
(b) Check the cables and the like for scratches and cracks. Perform periodic inspection according to
operating conditions.
(2) Life
The following parts must be changed periodically as listed below. If any part is found faulty, it must be
changed immediately even when it has not yet reached the end of its life, which depends on the
operating method and environmental conditions. For parts replacement, please contact your sales
representative.

POINT
Configure up a circuit which will detect the trouble (ALM) signal and turn
off the servo-on (SON) signal at occurrence of an alarm.
11.2.1 Alarms and warning list

When a fault occurs during operation, the corresponding alarm or warning is displayed. If any alarm or
warning has occurred, refer to section 11.2.2 or 11.2.3 and take the appropriate action.
Set "1 " in parameter No. 59 to output the alarm code in ON/OFF status across the corresponding
pin and SG. Warnings (AL.90 to AL.E9) have no alarm codes. Any alarm code is output at occurrence of
the corresponding alarm. In the normal status, the signals available before alarm code setting (CN1B-19,
CN1A-18, CN1A-19) are output.
After its cause has been removed, the alarm can be deactivated in any of the methods marked in the
alarm deactivation column.

11.2.2 Remedies for alarms
When any alarm has occurred, eliminate its cause, ensure safety, then reset the
alarm, and restart operation. Otherwise, injury may occur.
CAUTION If an absolute position erase alarm (AL.25) occurred, always make home position
setting again. Otherwise, misoperation may occur.
POINT
When any of the following alarms has occurred, always remove its cause
and allow about 30 minutes for cooling before resuming operation. If
operation is resumed by switching control circuit power off, then on to reset
the alarm, the servo amplifier and servo motor may become faulty.
Regenerative error (AL.30)
Overload 1 (AL.50)
Overload 2 (AL.51)
The alarm can be deactivated by switching power off, then on press the
"SET" button on the current alarm screen or by turning on the reset (RES).
For details, refer to section 11.2.1.
When an alarm occurs, the trouble (ALM) switches off and the dynamic is operated to stop the servo
motor. At this time, the display indicates the alarm No.
The servo motor comes to a stop. Remove the cause of the alarm in accordance with this section. The
optional MR Configurator (servo configuration software) may be used to refer to the cause.

13. CHARACTERISTICS
13.1 Overload protection characteristics
An electronic thermal relay is built in the servo amplifier to protect the servo motor and servo amplifier
from overloads. Overload 1 alarm (AL.50) occurs if overload operation performed is above the electronic
thermal relay protection curve shown in any of Figs 13.1. Overload 2 alarm (AL.51) occurs if the
maximum current flew continuously for several seconds due to machine collision, etc. Use the equipment
on the left-hand side area of the continuous or broken line in the graph.
In a machine like the one for vertical lift application where unbalanced torque will be produced, it is
recommended to use the machine so that the unbalanced torque is 70% or less of the rated torque.

13.2 Power supply equipment capacity and generated loss
(1) Amount of heat generated by the servo amplifier

Table 12.1 indicates servo amplifier's power supply capacities and losses generated under rated load.
For thermal design of an enclosure, use the values in Table 13.1 in consideration for the worst
operating conditions. The actual amount of generated heat will be intermediate between values at
rated torque and servo-off according to the duty used during operation. When the servo motor is run at
less than the maximum speed, the power supply capacity will be smaller than the value in the table,
but the servo amplifier's generated heat will not change.

13. CHARACTERISTICS
(2) Heat dissipation area for enclosed servo amplifier

The enclosed control box (hereafter called the control box) which will contain the servo amplifier
should be designed to ensure that its temperature rise is within 10 ( 50 ) at the ambient
temperature of 40 (104 ). (With a 5 (41 ) safety margin, the system should operate within a
maximum 55 (131 ) limit.) The necessary enclosure heat dissipation area can be calculated by
Equation 13.1.
P
A ............................................................................................................................................. (13.1)
K T
where, A : Heat dissipation area [m2]
P : Loss generated in the control box [W]
T : Difference between internal and ambient temperatures [ ]
K : Heat dissipation coefficient [5 to 6]
When calculating the heat dissipation area with Equation 13.1, assume that P is the sum of all losses
generated in the enclosure. Refer to Table 13.1 for heat generated by the servo amplifier. "A" indicates
the effective area for heat dissipation, but if the enclosure is directly installed on an insulated wall,
that extra amount must be added to the enclosure's surface area.
The required heat dissipation area will vary wit the conditions in the enclosure. If convection in the
enclosure is poor and heat builds up, effective heat dissipation will not be possible. Therefore,
arrangement of the equipment in the enclosure and the use of a cooling fan should be considered.
Table 13.1 lists the enclosure dissipation area for each servo amplifier when the servo amplifier is
operated at the ambient temperature of 40 (104 ) under rated load.
(Outside) (Inside)
Air flow
Fig. 13.2 Temperature distribution in enclosure
When air flows along the outer wall of the enclosure, effective heat exchange will be possible, because
the temperature slope inside and outside the enclosure will be steeper.

14. OPTIONS AND AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
Before connecting any option or peripheral equipment, turn off the power and wait
for 15 minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the
WARNING voltage between P and N is safe with a voltage tester and others. Otherwise, an
electric shock may occur. In addition, always confirm from the front of the servo
amplifier whether the charge lamp is off or not.
Use the specified auxiliary equipment and options. Unspecified ones may lead to a
CAUTION fault or fire.
14.1 Options
14.1.1 Regenerative options
The specified combinations of regenerative options and servo amplifiers may only
CAUTION be used. Otherwise, a fire may occur.

(2) Selection of the regenerative option

(a) Simple selection method
In horizontal motion applications, select the regenerative option as described below.
When the servo motor is run without load in the regenerative mode from the running speed to a
stop, the permissible duty is as indicated in section 5.1 of the separately available Servo Motor
Instruction Manual.
For the servo motor with a load, the permissible duty changes according to the inertia moment of
the load and can be calculated by the following formula.
Permissible Permissible duty for servo motor with no load (value indication section 5.1 in Servo Motor Instruction Manual)
duty (m 1)

14.1.2 FR-BU2 brake unit
POINT
Use a 200V class brake unit and a resistor unit with a 200V class servo
amplifier. Combination of different voltage class units and servo amplifier
cannot be used.
Install a brake unit and a resistor unit on a flat surface vertically. When
the unit is installed horizontally or diagonally, the heat dissipation effect
diminishes.
Temperature of the resistor unit case rises to higher than 100 . Keep
cables and flammable materials away from the case.
Ambient temperature condition of the brake unit is between 10 (14 )
and 50 (122 ). Note that the condition is different from the ambient
temperature condition of the servo amplifier (between 0 (32 ) and
55 (131 )).
Configure the circuit to shut down the power-supply with the alarm
output of the brake unit and resistor unit under abnormal condition.
Use the brake unit with a combination indicated in this section (1).
For executing a continuous regenerative operation, use FR-RC power
regeneration converter.
Brake unit and regenerative options (Regenerative resistor) cannot be
used simultaneously.
Connect the brake unit to the bus of the servo amplifier. As compared to the MR-RB regenerative option,
the brake unit can return larger power. Use the brake unit when the regenerative option cannot provide
sufficient regenerative capability.
When using the brake unit, set the parameter No.0 of the servo amplifier to " 01 ".
When using the brake unit, always refer to the FR-BU2-(H) Brake Unit Instruction Manual.
(1) Selection
Use a combination of servo amplifier, brake unit and resistor unit listed below.

(a) Precautions for wiring

The cables between the servo amplifier and the brake unit, and between the resistor unit and the
brake unit should be as short as possible. Always twist the cable longer than 5m (twist five times
or more per one meter). Even when the cable is twisted, the cable should be less than 10m. Using
cables longer than 5m without twisting or twisted cables longer than 10m, may result in the brake
unit malfunction.

(2) Encoder cable

If you have fabricated the encoder cable, connect it correctly.
CAUTION Otherwise, misoperation or explosion may occur.
POINT
The encoder cable is not oil resistant.
Refer to section 13.4 for the flexing life of the encoder cable.
When the encoder cable is used, the sum of the resistance values of the
cable used for P5 and the cable used for LG should be within 2.4 .
When soldering the wire to the connector pin, insulate and protect the
connection portion using heat-shrinkable tubing.
Generally use the encoder cable available as our options. If the required length is not found in the
options, fabricate the cable on the customer side.

14.1.9 Battery (MR-BAT, A6BAT)
POINT
The revision (Edition 44) of the Dangerous Goods Rule of the
International Air Transport Association (IATA) went into effect on
January 1, 2003 and was enforced immediately. In this rule, "provisions of
the lithium and lithium ion batteries" were revised to tighten the
restrictions on the air transportation of batteries. However, since this
battery is non-dangerous goods (non-Class 9), air transportation of 24 or
less batteries is outside the range of the restrictions. Air transportation of
more than 24 batteries requires packing compliant with the Packing
Standard 903. When a self-certificate is necessary for battery safety tests,
contact our branch or representative. For more information, consult our
branch or representative. (As of September, 2007).
Use the battery to build an absolute position detection system.

14.2.6 Noise reduction techniques
Noises are classified into external noises which enter the servo amplifier to cause it to malfunction and
those radiated by the servo amplifier to cause peripheral devices to malfunction. Since the servo amplifier
is an electronic device which handles small signals, the following general noise reduction techniques are
required.
Also, the servo amplifier can be a source of noise as its outputs are chopped by high carrier frequencies. If
peripheral devices malfunction due to noises produced by the servo amplifier, noise suppression measures
must be taken. The measures will vary slightly with the routes of noise transmission.
(1) Noise reduction techniques
(a) General reduction techniques
Avoid laying power lines (input and output cables) and signal cables side by side or do not bundle
them together. Separate power lines from signal cables.
Use shielded, twisted pair cables for connection with the encoder and for control signal
transmission, and connect the shield to the SD terminal.
Ground the servo amplifier, servo motor, etc. together at one point (refer to section 3.10).
(b) Reduction techniques for external noises that cause the servo amplifier to malfunction
If there are noise sources (such as a magnetic contactor, an electromagnetic brake, and many
relays which make a large amount of noise) near the servo amplifier and the servo amplifier may
malfunction, the following countermeasures are required.
Provide surge absorbers on the noise sources to suppress noises.
Attach data line filters to the signal cables.
Ground the shields of the encoder connecting cable and the control signal cables with cable clamp
fittings.
Although a surge absorber is built into the servo amplifier, to protect the servo amplifier and
other equipment against large exogenous noise and lightning surge, attaching a varistor to the
power input section of the equipment is recommended.
14 - 38
(c) Techniques for noises radiated by the servo amplifier that cause peripheral devices to malfunction
Noises produced by the servo amplifier are classified into those radiated from the cables connected
to the servo amplifier and its main circuits (input and output circuits), those induced
electromagnetically or statically by the signal cables of the peripheral devices located near the
main circuit cables, and those transmitted through the power supply cables.

Noise transmission route Suppression techniques

When measuring instruments, receivers, sensors, etc. which handle weak signals and may
malfunction due to noise and/or their signal cables are contained in a control box together with the
servo amplifier or run near the servo amplifier, such devices may malfunction due to noises
transmitted through the air. The following techniques are required.
1. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected devices and the servo amplifier.
1) 2) 3) 2. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected signal cables and the I/O cables of the servo
amplifier.
3. Avoid laying the power lines (Input cables of the servo amplifier) and signal cables side by side or
bundling them together.
4. Insert a line noise filter to the I/O cables or a radio noise filter on the input line.
5. Use shielded wires for signal and power cables or put cables in separate metal conduits.
When the power lines and the signal cables are laid side by side or bundled together, magnetic
induction noise and static induction noise will be transmitted through the signal cables and
malfunction may occur. The following techniques are required.
1. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected devices and the servo amplifier.
4) 5) 6) 2. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected signal cables and the I/O cables of the servo
amplifier.
3. Avoid laying the power lines (Input cables of the servo amplifier) and signal cables side by side or
bundling them together.
4. Use shielded wires for signal and power cables or put the cables in separate metal conduits.
When the power supply of peripheral devices is connected to the power supply of the servo
amplifier system, noises produced by the servo amplifier may be transmitted back through the
7) power supply cable and the devices may malfunction. The following techniques are required.
1. Insert the radio noise filter (FR-BIF) on the power cables (Input cables) of the servo amplifier.
2. Insert the line noise filter (FR-BSF01 FR-BLF) on the power cables of the servo amplifier.
When the cables of peripheral devices are connected to the servo amplifier to make a closed loop
8) circuit, leakage current may flow to malfunction the peripheral devices. If so, malfunction may be
prevented by disconnecting the grounding cable of the peripheral device.
(2) Noise reduction products

(a) Data line filter
Noise can be prevented by installing a data line filter onto the encoder cable, etc.
For example, the ZCAT3035-1330 of TDK and the ESD-SR-25 of NEC Tokin make are available as
data line filters.
As a reference example, the impedance specifications of the ZCAT3035-1330 (TDK) are indicated
below.

(c) Cable clamp fitting (AERSBAN- SET)

Generally, the earth of the shielded cable may only be connected to the connector's SD terminal.
However, the effect can be increased by directly connecting the cable to an earth plate as shown
below.
Install the earth plate near the servo amplifier for the encoder cable. Peel part of the cable sheath
to expose the external conductor, and press that part against the earth plate with the cable clamp.
If the cable is thin, clamp several cables in a bunch.
The clamp comes as a set with the earth plate.

(d) Line noise filter (FR-BLF, FR-BSF01)

This filter is effective in suppressing noises radiated from the power supply side and output side of
the servo amplifier and also in suppressing high-frequency leakage current (zero-phase current)
especially within 0.5MHz to 5MHz band.
Connection diagram Outline drawing [Unit: mm] ([Unit: in.])

supply, passes must be four times or less. Do not pass the

will drop. Wind the wires by passing through the filter to satisfy the
required number of passes as shown in Example 1. If the wires
Approx.65(2.56)
are too thick to wind, use two or more filters to have the required
number of passes as shown in Example 2. Place the line noise

15.2 Communication specifications
15.2.1 Communication overview
This servo amplifier is designed to send a reply on receipt of an instruction. The device which gives this
instruction (e.g. personal computer) is called a master station and the device which sends a reply in
response to the instruction (servo amplifier) is called a slave station. When fetching data successively, the
master station repeatedly commands the slave station to send data.

15.2.2 Parameter setting
When the RS-422/RS-232C communication function is used to operate the servo, set the communication
specifications of the servo amplifier in the corresponding parameters.
After setting the values of these parameters, they are made valid by switching power off once, then on
again.
(1) Serial communication baud rate

Choose the communication speed. Match this value to the communication speed of the sending end
(master station).
Parameter No. 16
Communication baud rate

0: 9600[bps]
1: 19200[bps]
2: 38400[bps]
3: 57600[bps]
(2) Serial communication selection

Select the RS-422 or RS-232C communication standard. RS-422 and RS-232C cannot be used together.
Parameter No. 16
Serial communication standard selection

0: RS-232C used
1: RS-422 used
(3) Serial communication response delay time

Set the time from when the servo amplifier (slave station) receives communication data to when it
sends back data. Set "0" to send back data in less than 800 s or "1" to send back data in 800 s or more.
Parameter No. 16
Serial communication response delay time

0: Invalid
1: Valid, reply sent in 800 s or more
(4) Station number setting

Set the station number of the servo amplifier in parameter No. 15. The setting range is stations 0 to
31.
(5) Protocol station number selection

When communication is made without setting station numbers to servo amplifiers, choose "no station
numbers" in parameter No. 57. The communication protocol will be free of station numbers.
Parameter No. 57
Protocol station number selection

0: With station numbers
1: No station numbers
15 - 4
15.3 Protocol
POINT
Whether station number setting will be made or not must be selected if
the RS-232C communication function is used. Note that choosing "no
station numbers" in parameter No. 57 will make the communication
protocol free of station numbers.
Since up to 32 axes may be connected to the bus, add a station number or group to the command, data
No., etc. to determine the destination servo amplifier of data communication. Set the station number to
each servo amplifier using the parameter and set the group to each station using the communication
command. Transmission data is valid for the servo amplifier of the specified station number or group.
When "*" is set as the station number added to the transmission data, the transmission data is made
valid for all servo amplifiers connected. However, when return data is required from the servo amplifier
in response to the transmission data, set "0" to the station number of the servo amplifier which must
provide the return data.

For example, "61H" is transmitted in hexadecimal for group a.
15 - 7
15.5 Error codes
Error codes are used in the following cases and an error code of single-code length is transmitted.
On receipt of data from the master station, the slave station sends the error code corresponding to that
data to the master station.
The error code sent in upper case indicates that the servo is normal and the one in lower case indicates
that an alarm occurred.
Error code
Error name Description Remarks
Servo normal Servo alarm
[A] [a] Normal operation Data transmitted was processed properly. Positive response
[B] [b] Parity error Parity error occurred in the transmitted data.
[C] [c] Checksum error Checksum error occurred in the transmitted data.

Negative response
Command not existing in the specifications was
[E] [e] Command error
transmitted.
Data No. not existing in the specifications was
[F] [f] Data No. error

15.6 Checksum
The checksum is a ASCII-coded hexadecimal representing the lower two digits of the sum of ASCII-coded
hexadecimal numbers up to ETX, with the exception of the first control code (STX or SOH).

Lower 2 digits 52 is sent after conversion into ASCII code [5][2].
15 - 8
15.7 Time-out operation
The master station transmits EOT when the slave station does not start reply operation (STX is not
received) 300[ms] after the master station has ended communication operation. 100[ms] after that, the
master station retransmits the message. Time-out occurs if the slave station does not answer after the
master station has performed the above operation three times. (Communication error)

15.8 Retry operation
When a fault occurs in communication between the master and slave stations, the error code in the
response data from the slave station is a negative response code ([B] to [F], [b] to [f]). In this case, the
master station retransmits the message which was sent at the occurrence of the fault (Retry operation). A
communication error occurs if the above operation is repeated and results in the error three or more
consecutive times.

Similarly, when the master station detects a fault (e.g. checksum, parity) in the response data from the
slave station, the master station retransmits the message which was sent at the occurrence of the fault. A
communication error occurs if the retry operation is performed three times.
15 - 9
15.9 Initialization
After the slave station is switched on, it cannot reply to communication until the internal initialization
processing terminates. Hence, at power-on, ordinary communication should be started after.
(1) 1s or more time has elapsed after the slave station is switched on; and
(2) Making sure that normal communication can be made by reading the parameter or other data which
does not pose any safety problems.

15.12 Detailed explanations of commands
15.12.1 Data processing
When the master station transmits a command data No. or a command data No. data to a slave
station, the servo amplifier returns a reply or data according to the purpose.
When numerical values are represented in these send data and receive data, they are represented in
decimal, hexadecimal, etc.
Therefore, data must be processed according to the application.
Since whether data must be processed or not and how to process data depend on the monitoring,
parameters, etc., follow the detailed explanation of the corresponding command.
The following methods are how to process send and receive data when reading and writing data.
(1) Processing the read data

When the display type is 0, the eight-character data is converted from hexadecimal to decimal and a
decimal point is placed according to the decimal point position information.
When the display type is 1, the eight-character data is used unchanged.
The following example indicates how to process the receive data "003000000929" given to show.
The receive data is as follows.
0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 2 9
Data 32-bits length (hexadecimal representation)
(Data conversion is required as indicated in the display type)
Display type
0: Data must be converted into decimal.
1: Data is used unchanged in hexadecimal.
Decimal point position

0: No decimal point
1: First least significant digit (normally not used)
2: Second least significant digit
3: Third least significant digit
4: Forth least significant digit
5: Fifth least significant digit
6: Sixth least significant digit
Since the display type is "0" in this case, the hexadecimal data is converted into decimal.
00000929H 2345
As the decimal point position is "3", a decimal point is placed in the third least significant digit.
Hence, "23.45" is displayed.
15 - 17
(2) Writing the processed data

When the data to be written is handled as decimal, the decimal point position must be specified. If it is
not specified, the data cannot be written. When the data is handled as hexadecimal, specify "0" as the
decimal point position.
The data to be sent is the following value.
0
Data is transferred in hexadecimal.

0: No decimal point
1: First least significant digit
2: Second least significant digit
3: Third least significant digit
4: Forth least significant digit
5: Fifth least significant digit
By way of example, here is described how to process the set data when a value of "15.5" is sent. Since
the decimal point position is the second digit, the decimal point position data is "2". As the data to be
sent is hexadecimal, the decimal data is converted into hexadecimal.
155 9B
Hence, "0200009B" is transmitted.
15 - 18
15.12.2 Status display
(1) Status display data read

When the master station transmits the data No. to the slave station, the slave station sends back the
data value and data processing information.
(a) Transmission
Transmit command [0][1] and the data No. corresponding to the status display item to be read.
Refer to section 15.11.1.
(b) Reply
The slave station sends back the status display data requested.
0 0
Data 32 bits long (represented in hexadecimal)
(Data conversion into display type is required)
Display type
0: Used unchanged in hexadecimal
1: Conversion into decimal required

0: No decimal point
1: Lower first digit (usually not used)
2: Lower second digit
3: Lower third digit
4: Lower fourth digit
5: Lower fifth digit
6: Lower sixth digit
(2) Status display data clear

The cumulative feedback pulse data of the status display is cleared. Send this command immediately
after reading the status display item. The data of the status display item transmitted is cleared to
zero.
Command Data No. Data
[8][1] [0][0] 1EA5
For example, after sending command [0][1] and data No. [8][0] and receiving the status display data,
send command [8][1], data No. [0][0] and data [1EA5] to clear the cumulative feedback pulse value to
zero.

(2) Parameter write

POINT
If setting values need to be changed with a high frequency (i.e. one time or
more per one hour), write the setting values to the RAM, not the EEP-
ROM. The EEP-ROM has a limitation in the number of write times and
exceeding this limitation causes the servo amplifier to malfunction. Note
that the number of write times to the EEP-ROM is limited to
approximately 100, 000.
Write the parameter setting.

Write the value within the setting range. Refer to section 5.1 for the setting range.
Transmit command [8][4], the data No., and the set data.
The data number is represented in hexadecimal. The decimal value converted from the data number
value corresponds to the parameter number. Refer to (1) (a) of this section.
When the data to be written is handled as decimal, the decimal point position must be specified. If it is
not specified, data cannot be written. When the data is handled as hexadecimal, specify 0 as the
decimal point position.
Write the data after making sure that it is within the upper/lower limit value range given in section
5.1.2. Read the parameter data to be written, confirm the decimal point position, and create
transmission data to prevent error occurrence. On completion of write, read the same parameter data
to verify that data has been written correctly.
Command Data No. Set data

[0][0] to
[8][4] See below.
[5][A]

0: No decimal point
4: Lower forth digit
Write mode
0: Write to EEP-ROM
3: Write to RAM
When the parameter data is changed frequently through communication,
set "3" to the write mode to change only the RAM data in the servo amplifier.
When changing data frequently (once or more within one hour),
do not write it to the EEP-ROM.

The test operation mode must be executed in the following procedure. If communication is interrupted
for longer than 0.5s during test operation, the servo amplifier causes the motor to be decelerated to a
stop and servo-locked. To prevent this, continue communication without a break, e.g. monitor the
status display.
