NOTICE 

 

Operating voltage too high or incorrectly connected! 

Operating voltages that are too high or incorrectly connected can cause damage to the P-611. 

 

Operate the P-611 only with controllers/drivers and original accessories from PI. 

 

Do 

not

 exceed the operating voltage range (p. 40) for which the P-611 is specified. 

 

Operate the P-611 only when the operating voltage is properly connected; see "Pin 

Assignment" (p. 49). 

  

 

NOTICE 

 

Uncontrolled oscillation! 

Oscillation can cause irreparable damage to the P-611. Oscillation is indicated by a humming 

noise and can be caused by the following: 

 

A change in the load and/or dynamics requires the servo control parameters to be 

adjusted. 

 

The P-611 is operated near to its resonant frequency. 

If you notice oscillation: 

 

In closed-loop operation, switch off the servo mode immediately. 

 

In open-loop operation, stop the P-611 immediately. 

  

 

INFORMATION 

 

Positive direction of axis motion is specified in the product view (p. 10). 

  

 

INFORMATION 

 

Sound and vibration (e.g., footfall, knocks) can be transmitted to the P-611 and can affect its 

performance with regard to position stability. 

 

Avoid sound and vibration while the P-611 is being operated. 

  

 

6.2

 

Operating the P­611 

 

Follow the instructions in the manual for the electronics (p. 13) used for starting and 

operating the P-611.
