Glossary
This glossary lists the terms used in this document.
Symbols
#
Indicates the number of a parameter stored on RAM. Example: #100
##
Indicates the number of a parameter stored on EEPROM. Example: ##100
@
Indicates a command number. Example: @3:10
@Command
A general term for operation commands issued from a PC to the drive. Example: @3:10
A
ABS
Absolute position, or a motor built in with an absolute position detector called the ABS motor
Absolute Accuracy
The difference between the angle at which the motor should be rotated (instructed value) and
the angle at which the motor actually rotates. This value is displayed after adding a sign to
a half of the maximum value for the entire circumference of one rotation.
Absolute Positioning
Operation to position at an absolute coordinate position
Alarm
A warning whose level is lower than an error
Aliasing
A phenomenon in which waveforms cannot be displayed accurately when the sampling
velocity becomes half (Nyquist frequency) or below the input signal. Generally, in order to
display accurate waveforms on a digital oscilloscope, a sampling velocity about 4 to 10 times
the frequency of the input signal as well as a frequency band at least three times the
frequency of the input signal are required.
All Reset
An operation to return all user data to the factory preset values.
Analog Monitor Card
A board that is inserted into a connector of the front panel section of the drive and used to
monitor the velocity and other information using an oscilloscope (optional).
Analog Monitor Terminal
General-purpose monitor terminals AM1 and AM2 on the analog monitor card
Argument
An option to be added to an operation command. Some commands have no argument or
have multiple arguments.
Auto Start Table
Set [Auto Start Function] to [Valid] to perform automatic operation after the power is turned
ON. By this setting, the table having the number that has been set up starts.
