3. Setting
Set the 'Program drive operation' of mode 1 as follows.
Setting contents
Master
instrument Set from any of the following.
・
'MASTER KEY'
: Set when performing the run operation using the front key.
・ 'MASTER EXT'
: Set when performing run operation by using external drive
input.
・ 'MASTER COM'
: Set when performing run operation by communication.
However it can be selected only in case of specifications with
communication.
・
'MASTER FREE'
: Set when performing the run operation by front key/external
drive signal/communication optional signal.
However, communication can be selected only in case of
specifications with communication.
Slave instrument Set all to 'SLAVE EXT'.
When 'MASTER FREE' is set in master instrument, run operation can be done by optional signal instead of
changing the settings and it is convenient, however, as run status is based on the signal that is last sent, it is
very difficult to judge as to on which signal does the last operation signal depend.
For example, when operating using both, front key and external drive signal, the status of external switch
connected to external drive input and actual operation status may differ. Thus this is normal for this controller
however for the entire system of the final product it may be received as mal operation which is risky hence take
care.
In order to avoid the mal operation of the entire we do not recommend 'MASTER FREE' setting.
4. Operation
① Run operation
･
Run operation is executed for master device only.
･
All the slave devices are run by synchronizing them with the status signal of the master device.
②
Real temperature compensation operation
･
When real temperature compensation is done on any one machine, WAIT status signal is output from
that machine and WAIT signal is sent to all the slave devices from this master device. Thus all the
connected products have the wait status and are synchronized.
