2. Product Outline
2.1 Product features
The followings are the main functions of this controller:
Electric Actuator Control
Positioning operation and Pushing operation, at a specific speed and force, of the electric actuator
are possible by controlling the Step motor (24 VDC servo).
Specified force operation
Control the pushing force (or the pressing force) of the electric actuator.
Separated power supply
The power supply is separated into the drive power and the control power. Therefore, even when
the drive power is off, if the control power is on, the position information from the encoder will be
maintained and the serial communication and parallel I/O control are still available.
Return to origin
Return the electric actuator to the home position by sending a single signal to a dedicated
terminal.
Alarm detection function
Automatically detect the abnormal conditions and output the appropriate alarm signal via the
serial interface and parallel I/O. The alarm information (up to the last 8 alarms) will be recorded
into the memory in the controller.
64 step data
Control the electric actuator according to the step data specified by the input of parallel I/O.
It is possible to setup various parameters for each operation pattern.
Area output
The area output terminal will be activated if the electric actuator position is within the range
specified by “Area 1” and “Area 2” in the step data.
Data input method
It is possible to perform parameter setup, status monitoring, trial run and alarm reset via the serial
communication with a PC installed with the controller setting kit or the teaching box.
Easy mode and Normal mode
There are two available modes for the controller setting kit and the teaching box. In Easy mode,
you can start the operation by only setting the speed, position, etc. In Normal mode, further
detailed setup can be performed.
Caution
Please keep this manual safe for future use. It will be necessary to refer to this manual along with the
operation manuals for other electric actuators, teaching box, and controller setting kit at installation and
fault finding.
Keep this operation manual accessible for reference.
