3.2.25
Software Reset (Fn030)
You can use this utility function to internally perform a software reset of
the SERVOPACK. This utility function is used when resetting alarms and
changing the settings of parameters that normally require turning the
power supply to the SERVOPACK OFF and ON again. This utility func-
tion can be used to change those parameters without turning the power
supply to the SERVOPACK OFF and ON again.
Note: 1. Execute this utility function only after confirming that the servo is OFF and that
the motor is stopped (including not turning due to inertia or an external force).
2. This utility function resets the SERVOPACK independently of the host control-
ler. The SERVOPACK carries out the same processing as when the power
supply is turned ON and outputs the ALM (Servo Alarm) output signal. The
status of other output signals may be forcibly changed.
Preparations
Always check the following before you perform a software reset.
•
The servo must be OFF.
•
The Servomotor must be stopped (including not turning due to inertia
or an external force).
