9. Operation Mode
Specify the basic operation mode using the MOD area (bits 0 to 6) in the RMD (operation mode) register.
9-1. Continuous operation mode using command control
This is a mode of continuous operation. A start command is written and operation continues until a stop
command is written.
MOD Operation method Direction of movement
00h Continuous operation from a command Positive direction
08h Continuous operation from a command Negative direction
Stop by turning ON the EL signal corresponding to the direction of operation.
When operation direction is positive, +EL can be used. When operation direction is negative, -EL is used.
In order to start operation in the reverse direction after stopping the motion by turning ON the EL signal, a
new start command must be written.
9-2. Positioning operation mode
The following 2 operation types are available for positioning operations.
MOD Operation method Direction of movement
41h Positioning operation Positive direction when PRMV 0
Negative direction when PRMV < 0
47h Timer operation (PRMV 0) Positive direction (DIR = H). However, the
pulse output is masked.
9-2-1. Positioning operation (MOD: 41h)
This is a positioning mode used by placing a value in the PRMV (target position) register.
The feed direction is determined by the sign set in the PRMV register.
When starting, the RMV register absolute setting value is loaded into the positioning counter (RPLS). The
PCL counts down pulses with operations, and when the value of the positioning counter drops to 0,
movement on the axes stops. When you set the PRMV register value to zero to start a positioning
operation, the LSI will stop outputting pulses immediately.
9-2-2. Timer operation (MOD: 47h)
This mode allows the internal operation time to be used as a timer.
The internal effect of this operation is identical to the positioning operation. However, the LSI does not
output any pulses (they are masked).
Therefore, the internal operation time using the low speed start command will be a product of the
frequency of the output pulses and the RMV register setting. (Ex.: When the frequency is 1000 pps and
the RMS register is set to 120 pulses, the internal operation time will be 120 msec.)
Write a positive number (1 to 134,217,727) into the RMV register. Negative numbers are treated as
unsigned positive numbers.
The EL input signal, SD input signal, and ALM input are ignored. (These are always treated as OFF.)
The ALM input signal input signal, and input signals are effective.
The direction change timer function is disabled.
Regardless of the MINP setting (bit 9) in the RMD (operation mode) register, an operation complete delay
controlled by the INP signal will not occur.
In order to eliminate deviations in the internal operation time, set the METM (bit 12) in the PRMD register
to zero and use the cycle completion timing of the output pulse as the operation complete timing.
