When CV500-MC221/421 is Used
Function
Description
Page
Monitor
Current position
Monitors the following current positions:
Current position in the reference coordinate system
(using user-set units such as “mm.”)
Current position in the reference coordinate system (in pulses.)
Error counter value.
43
I/O signals
Monitors and changes I/O signals connected to the MC Unit.
44
Errors
Reads errors that have occurred in the MC Unit.
46
Position data
Reads and changes position data stored in the MC Unit.
47
Z-phase tolerance
Monitors the number of pulses from the origin input to the Z
phase.
48
Origin search
Searches for the origin.
54
Program
execution
Task/Program No.
designation
Designates the desired task and program to be executed.
55
e ecu o
Cycle run
Executes tasks.
Single block run
Executes the program block by block.
Jogging
Jogs individual axes.
More than one axis cannot be jogged at the same time.
57
MPG feeding
Axis
Designates the axis to be fed by MPG (manual pulse generator).
58
g
Multiplication factor
Designates the multiplication factor for 1 pulse for the MPG.
Extension
Mode
Changes the mode used to control the MC Unit.
35
Servo-lock/
Servo-unlock
Locks or unlocks the servomotor.
63
Memory protect
Protects or clears protection for memory (position data area) in
the MC Unit.
65
Absolute encoder
initial setting
Sets the current position to 0 when using an absolute encoder.
This function is used when replacing an absolute encoder or
using an absolute encoder for the first time.
65
Absolute encoder
software reset
Tentatively sets the current position to 0 when using the absolute
encoder.
This function is used for incrementing after the absolute encoder
initial setting has been made.
67
Override
Increases or decreased the operating speed in axis units during
memory operation.
74
Teaching
Registers the current position as position data.
75
Deceleration stop
Decelerates all axes to a stop.
Stops the currently operating program.
78
Error reset
MC Unit error reset
Resets errors that have occurred in the MC Unit.
78
Servodriver error
reset
Resets alarms for the Servodriver.
Error detection
CPU errors
Communications errors
