(5) Brake (/BK) Signal Output Timing during Linear Servomotor Operation
If an alarm occurs while the linear servomotor is running, the linear servomotor will come to a stop and the
brake (/BK) signal will be turned OFF. The timing of brake signal (/BK) output can be adjusted by setting the
brake reference output speed level (Pn583) and the waiting time for brake signal when motor running (Pn508).
Note: If the linear servomotor is set so that it comes to a zero-speed stop for an alarm, follow the information in
(4) Brake
ON Timing after the Linear Servomotor Stops
after the motor comes to a stop for a zero position reference.
/BK Signal Output Conditions When Linear
Servomotor Running
The brake is applied when either of the following
conditions is satisfied:
• When the motor speed falls below the level set in
Pn583 after the power to the linear servomotor is
turned OFF.
• When the time set in Pn508 is exceeded after the
power to the linear servomotor is turned OFF.

• The linear servomotor will be limited to its maximum speed even if the value set in
Pn583 is higher than the maximum speed.
• Do not allocate the motor movement detection signal (/TGON) and the brake signal
(/BK) to the same terminal, otherwise the /TGON signal will be turned ON by the fall-
ing speed on a vertical axis, and the brake may not be turned ON.
For the /BK signal, do not use the terminal that is already being used for another sig-
nal.
