4.4
Touch probe [G] [WG]
Outline
This function is available on servo amplifiers with firmware version A5 or later.
The touch probe function latches the current position by inputting a signal from a sensor or the like. Position feedback at the
rising edge and falling edge of an input device can be stored into an object according to specified conditions.
• This function can be used only for the MR-J5-_G_-RJ_, MR-J5W2-_G_, and MR-J5W3-_G_.
• For input device assignment, the touch probe function has restrictions on pins that can be set.
• For the MR-J5W2-_G_ and MR-J5W3-_G_ servo amplifiers, when input devices TPR1 (Touch probe 1),
TPR2 (Touch probe 2), and TPR3 (Touch probe 3) are set and the network communication cycle is less than
250 [
μ
s], [AL. 09E Network warning] occurs.
• For the MR-J5W3-_G_ servo amplifiers, when input devices TPR1, TPR2, and TPR3 are set and CC-Link
IE TSN communication is used, the A/B/Z-phase pulse output function cannot be used.

Precautions
If the external input signal causes chattering due to noise or other factors, the position may not be detected correctly. Review
the surrounding environment.
