1.2.2
Operating modes and
system environment
The controller can be operated in different system environments, depen-
ding on the OPT.1 and OPT.2 interface configuration.
The following operating modes are available:
In manual mode, positions are approached using the inputs and outputs
or the front panel keys. Acceleration and manual speeds of the 3-phase
stepping motor can be adjusted.
Manual mode
In teach-in mode, positions are approached and stored using the inputs
and outputs or the front panel keys by manual control. A maximum of ten
positions can be stored.
Teach-in mode
In this mode (fig. 1-3), up to ten stored positions can be selected and
approached via inputs or front panel control. The positions can be input
via teach-in, via the front panel or via download through the serial
interface and are stored in the same locations in the controller.
Positioning can be effected with absolute values (relative to a reference
point) or with incremental values (relative to the current position). The
system of either absolute or incremental dimensions is selected on the
front panel (P21 parameter). Before executing a positioning operation in
the system of absolute dimensions, a reference movement must be
executed towards a limit switch or a reference switch (see chapter 1.2.3).
Alternatively, the current position can be set as the reference position
(current position = 0).
Position processing
If the controller is provided with a serial interface and position processing
mode has been selected (parameter P00 = 0), positions and parameters
can be read (upload) or input (download) through the serial interface.
Upload/download via serial
interface
Uploading and downloading is described in the separate On-line Com-
mand Processing and Upload/Download via Serial Interface documen-
tation.
