Torque Limit
You can limit the torque that is output by the Motor.
There are four different ways to limit the torque. These are described in the following table.
Limit Method
Outline
Reference
Internal Torque Limits
The torque is always limited with the setting of a parameter.
External Torque Limits
The torque is limited with an input signal from the host
station.
Limiting torque with
EtherCAT command
The torque is limited with the settings of objects 60E0h
(PosTorLimit) and 60E1h (NegTorLimit) in EtherCAT
command.
Limiting torque with
/CLT output signal
The torque is limited by the output signal /CLT (Allocated by
Pn511).
NOTE
: If you set a value that exceeds the maximum torque of the Motor, the torque will be limited to the maximum
torque of the Motor.
7.9.1
Internal Torque Limits
If you use internal torque limits, the maximum output torque will always be limited to the specified
forward torque limit (Pn401) and reverse torque limit (Pn402).

If the setting of Pn401 or Pn402 is too low, the torque may be insufficient for acceleration or deceleration
of the Motor.

External Torque Limits
You can limit the torque only when required by the operating conditions of the machine by turning a
signal ON and OFF.
You can use this for applications such as stopping on physical contact, or holding a workpiece with a
robot.
