When Changing Input Signal Allocations (Pn50A = n.
1)
You must allocate the /ZCLAMP signal. Allocate the signal with Pn50D = n.
X (/ZCLAMP
(Zero Clamping Input) Signal Allocation).
Refer to the following section for details.
Enabling Zero Clamping
To enable using zero clamping, set the control method (Pn000 = n.
X
) to 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9
or A. You can use zero clamping only for operation with speed control.
If Pn000 = n.
X
is set to 5, 6, 7, or 9, zero clamping will be disabled when the control
method is changed to any method other than speed control.
Related Parameters
You set the speed at which to apply zero clamping as the zero clamping level (Pn501 or
Pn580). If you set a value that exceeds the maximum speed of the Servomotor, the actual
speed will be limited to the maximum speed of the Servomotor.

/ZCLAMP Must be allocated.
ON (closed)
Zero clamping is applied if the input voltage of the
V-REF (Speed Reference Input) signal is equal to or
lower than the speed set for the zero clamping level
(Pn501 or Pn580).
OFF (open)
Zero clamping is disabled.
If you set the parameter to keep the /ZCLAMP always active (Pn50D = n.
7) for speed con-
trol, zero clamping will be applied whenever the speed reference is equal to or lower than the
speed set for the zero clamping level. In this case, using the /ZCLAMP signal is not necessary.
