General Notes on Startup
NOTICE
Damage due to disabled limit switch evaluation!
The collision of a moving part at the end of the travel range, or with an obstacle, as well as high
acceleration, can cause damage to or considerable wear on the mechanics.
➢
Avoid motion in open-loop operation.
➢
If motion in open-loop operation is necessary:
−
Set the control value with the SMO command so that the axis moves with low velocity.
−
Stop the axis in time. For this purpose, use the #24, STP or HLT command, or set the
control value to zero with the SMO command.
➢
Do not disable the evaluation of the limit switches by the C-863.12 via parameter setting.
➢
Check the function of the limit switches at about 10 % to 20 % of the maximum velocity.
➢
In the event of a malfunction of the limit switches, stop the motion immediately.
