3.4 OPERATION
For the upper device to recognize a general purpose input signal (PIO input signal), it is
necessary to continue inputting the signal for a period of time longer than the period set by the
“input signal filter” of parameter.
CAUTION
Be careful of emergency stop wiring disconnection.
Emergency stop status is not treated as an alarm, so no alarm signal will be output.
Be careful of the input signal status.
For solenoid valve mode single/double 3 position type, the travel command signal is level input, so
it may operate when emergency stop is released.
If an emergency stop is performed during operation, a short is generated between the motor terminals
after deceleration and stop, and it enters the dynamic brake status.
Operation preparation complete output turns OFF until the emergency stop is released. The
electromagnetic brake is also locked if a brake is attached. A short is generated between the motor
terminals and it enters the dynamic brake status.
To release emergency stop, first confirm the surrounding area is safe, and then turn the emergency stop

WARNING
Always set the input for force brake release (BRK) to either 0 VDC or open during normal

Force brake release status is not treated as an alarm, so no alarm signal will be output.
Be careful of the input signal status.
For solenoid valve mode single/double 3 position type, the travel command signal is level input, so
it may operate when force brake release is cleared.
When the force brake release signal is input (24 V applied), the electromagnetic brake is forcibly
released (if one is attached). If force brake release is performed during operation, no current is passed
to the motor after deceleration stops. This operates the same as emergency stop, but the electromagnetic

Home position
offset
(1) When the command of a home position return is given, an operation is started in the specified
rotation direction.
The rotation speed is the speed (20 deg/s to 30 deg/s) set by the home position return speed.
(2) The proximity sensor is turned ON.
(3) The proximity sensor is turned OFF.
(4) Reverse movement is performed.
(5) The proximity sensor is turned ON.
(6) The proximity sensor is turned OFF.
The home position offset reference position is calculated from the results of (2), (3), (5), and (6).
(7) The actuator stops once, and starts the operation to the home position.
(8) The home position return is completed when the home position offset amount is 0.
(8)' When the home position offset amount is other than 0, the actuator travels by the setting value, and
the home position return is completed.
The incremental encoder is used, so a home position return operation is required after the power supply
is turned ON.
If the home position return direction is “Normal,” an operation is started counterclockwise (in
the CCW direction).
If the home position return direction is “Opposite,” an operation is started clockwise (in the CW
direction).
If an obstacle is placed in the proximity sensor detection range, the home position return is not
completed.

WARNING
Prevent falling during vertical operation.
When a workpiece is placed in the vertical direction, vibration or a sudden impact to the equipment
could cause a load exceeding the holding force above to be applied. When placing a workpiece in
the vertical direction, be sure to implement safety measures to prevent falling.
If the “stop method” is set to “fixed” for the point data, it is held at the current value set in the “fixed current
at stop” user parameters once travel is complete. If a load exceeding the holding force shown in the
following table is applied while holding, an alarm may occur.

SM-A27751-A/3 4. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
CAUTION
Wiring and inspection must be carried out by professional engineers.
For the lead wire to be used for the power supply cable, use a wire diameter that sufficiently
allows the instantaneous maximum current.
Failure to do so may cause heat generation or damage during operation.
Perform a periodic check (2 to 3 times a year) to confirm that the product operates normally.
The grease supply interval must usually be 100 km as a standard.
However, it depends on the operating conditions, so study and determine the grease supply interval
at the initial inspection.
Turn off the power immediately if abnormal heat, smoke, odor, noise, vibration, etc. occur in
the product.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the product, or fire due to the continuous flow of electric
current.
Maintenance, inspection, and repair must be performed after the power supply to the
product is stopped.
Alert people around not to let a third party turn on the power inadvertently.
