Detection of Abnormal Pulse Outputs
The Position Control Unit outputs pulse trains in accordance with the pro-
grammed data. When tracing an abnormality, the following should be taken
into consideration.
The Unit only outputs the number of pulses required to reach the target posi-
tion. Count the number of pulses being output with an up/down counter and
check to see if the proper number of pulses is being output.
The frequency of pulse train output can be observed on a synchroscope at
the constant speed interval of the trapezoidal acceleration/deceleration. To
measure the frequency during acceleration and deceleration, an F/V conver-
ter and X-Y recorder can be used. For regular maintenance, observation of
the frequency at stable speed intervals with a synchroscope is sufficient.
