For details, refer to
Σ
-V Series User’s Manual MECHATROLINK-II Commands
(Manual No.: SIEP S800000 54).
Note: The maximum torque of the servomotor is used when the set value exceeds the maximum torque.
4.6.1
Internal Torque Limit
This function always limits maximum output torque by setting values of following parameters.
The setting unit is a percentage of the rated torque.
Note: If the settings of Pn402 and Pn403 are too low, the torque may be insufficient for acceleration or deceleration of the
servomotor.
