Writing Linear Servomotor Parameters
If you connect a linear encoder to the SERVOPACK without going through a Serial Converter
Unit, you must use the S to write the motor parameters to the linear encoder. The
motor parameters contain the information that is required by the SERVOPACK to operate the
Linear Servomotor.
Precautions
•
If the encoder parameters are not written to the linear encoder, an A.CA0 alarm (Encoder
Parameter Error) will occur. Consult the manufacturer of the linear encoder.
•
If the motor parameters are not written to the linear encoder, an A.CA0 alarm (Encoder
Parameter Error) will not occur, but the following alarms will occur.
A.040 (Parameter Setting Error), A.041 (Encoder Output Pulse Setting Error),
A.050 (Combination Error), A.051 (Unsupported Device Alarm),
A.550 (Maximum Speed Setting Error), A.710 (Instantaneous Overload),
A.720 (Continuous Overload), and A.C90 (Encoder Communications Error)
Applicable Tools
The following table lists the tools that you can use to write the parameters to the Linear Servo-
motor and the applicable tool functions.
WARNING
Check the motor and linear encoder information before you write the motor parameters.
If you do not write the correct motor parameters, the motor may run out of control or burning
may occur, possibly resulting in equipment damage or fire.
Serial number information is not included in the motor parameters. You cannot use the monitor
functions of the SERVOPACK to monitor the serial number.
If you attempt to monitor the serial number, ********** will be displayed.
