1. Safety standard
■ Cautions regarding compliance with EC Directives
The YAMAHA robot (robot and controller) is not, in itself, a robot system. The
YAMAHA robot is just one component that is incorporated into the customer's
system (built-in equipment), and YAMAHA robots are in compliance with the EC
Directives as they apply to built-in equipment. Therefore, this does not guarantee
EC Directive compliance in cases where the robot is used independently.
Customers who incorporate a YAMAHA robot into a system which will be shipped
to, or used in, the EU, should therefore verify that the overall system is compliant
with EC Directives.
• Differences between a YAMAHA robot (robot and controller), and a robot system:
A YAMAHA robot (robot and controller) is just one component in a robot system, and is not,
in itself, a robot system.
This is because a YAMAHA robot does not include the "end effectors" or "any equipment,
devices, or sensors required for the robot to perform its tasks", as defined in the EN10218-
1:2006 Standard, Item –3.20.
■ Applicable EC Directives and their related standards

The following table lists the Directives (and related standards) which apply to the
robot's CE Marking compliance.
EC Directive Related Standards
EN ISO12100-1 : Safety of machinery - Basic concepts Part1
Machinery
EN ISO12100-2 : Safety of machinery - Basic concepts Part2
Directive
EN ISO14121-1 : Safety of machinery - Risk assessment
2006/42/EC
EN60204-1 : Safety of machinery - Electrical equipment of machines
EMC Directive EN 55011 : EMC Emission of ISM Equipment
2004/108/EC EN 61000-6-2 : EMC Immunity for Industrial Environments
Referred standards: EN ISO10218-1: Safety requirements - Part1:Robot
■ Cautions regarding the official language of EU countries

For YAMAHA robots that will be installed in EU countries, the language used for
the user's manuals, CE declarations, and operation screen characters is English
only, except for warning labels.
Warning labels only have pictograms or else include warning messages in
English. In the latter case, Japanese language messages might be added.

2. Safety measures
■ Usage Conditions
The usage conditions which apply to the YAMAHA robot series are described
below.
• EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)
YAMAHA robots are designed for industrial environments. (Applicable standard
relating to the EMC Directive: Refer to the EN61000-6-2 Standard, Item 1
"Scope".)
EMC Directive compliance requires that the customer have the final product
(over equipment system) evaluated, with any necessary measures being
implemented.
• Installation conditions
· YAMAHA robots are classified as "built-in equipment", and feature a "Class
I" protective structure with regard to electrical shocks. Be sure to ground the
robot and robot controller in order to ensure electrical shock protection.
· The robot controller case is not designed to meet the "enclosure" requirement
specified by the EN60204-1 Standard. Suitable protection should therefore
be provided to prevent contact electrical shock hazards, and to protect the
controller from dust and water, etc., in the ambient environment.
· Regarding insulation coordination, YAMAHA robots are designed for the
following conditions (refer to the IEC60664-1 Standard):
Over-voltage category II
Pollution degree 2
Suitable measures should be taken if the robot is to be used in environments
more severe than those shown above.
• Explosion-proof
The robot and controller do not have explosion-proof specifications, and the
robot should therefore not be used in environments exposed to flammable
gases which could explode or ignite, or to gasoline and solvents, etc.
3. Robot safety measures

■ Electrical Shock Prevention Measures
Use the protective ground terminal in order to ensure safety with regard to
electrical shocks. For details, refer to the robot's operation manual.

CE marking
4. EMC countermeasure example

Regarding EMC directives, the customer's final product (entire system) including
the YAMAHA robot must provide the necessary countermeasures. We at YAMAHA
determine a model for single units of YAMAHA robots (controller, robot, and
peripheral device) and verify that it complies with the relevant standards of EMC
directives.
In order to ensure the customer's final product (entire system) complies with EMC
directives, the customer should take appropriate EMC countermeasures. Typical
EMC countermeasures for a single unit of YAMAHA robot are shown for your
reference.
The examples shown here are the countermeasures tested under our installation
conditions. When our product is installed in the customer's system, the test
CAUTION results may differ due to the difference in the installation conditions.

Safety cautions
Safety cautions
The controller was designed and manufactured with ample consideration given to
safety. However, incorrect handling or use may lead to injury, fire, electrical shocks,
or other accidents or equipment failures. To prevent possible problems, be sure to
observe the following safety cautions at all times.
Also carefully read the safety cautions listed in the robot user's manual and follow
all instructions given there.
DANGER
Never enter the robot movement range during operation.
Entering the movement range while the robot is in motion could
result in serious accidents or death. A safety enclosure or area
sensor with a gate interlock function should be installed to keep all
persons safely out of the robot's movement range.
Always turn the main power breaker OFF and establish an

"emergency stop" status before performing tasks within
the robot's movement range.
Failing to do so could result in serious accidents or death. (See
Section 2.10 "Connecting the EXT connector".)
The controller and robot were designed as general-

purpose industrial equipment, and cannot be used
for the following applications.
· In medical equipment systems which are critical to human life.
· In systems which significantly affect society and the general public.
· In environments which are subject to vibration, such as aboard
ships and vehicles.
For safety purposes, be sure to install an "emergency

stop" circuit.
Use the controller's "emergency stop" input terminal to install a main
power shutoff circuit (required).

Always shut off the power to the controller before

performing wiring work and connecting cables.
Failing to do so could result in electrical shocks and equipment
failure.
When connecting cables, use care to avoid subjecting

the connectors to impact shocks or excessive loads.
Failing to do so could result in connector pin deformation, and
internal PCB damage.
Handle cables with care to avoid damaging them.

Do not attempt to modify the cables, and avoid pulling them or
placing heavy objects on them. These actions could damage the
cable, possibly resulting in malfunctions and electrical shocks.
Be sure that cable connectors and terminals are fully

inserted and securely fastened.
Tighten the fastening screws securely. Failing to do so could cause a
poor connection, possibly resulting in malfunctions.
Securely ground the power terminal block's ground

terminal.
Failing to do so could result in electrical shocks.
• Operation and handling
The controller and the HT1 should be operated only

by personnel who have received safety and operation
training.
Operation by an untrained person is extremely hazardous.
Set the payload, acceleration, and deceleration to

appropriate values.
Payload, acceleration, and deceleration settings which differ greatly
from the actual values will result in operation time loss, shorten the
robot life, and cause vibration. Be sure to set them to appropriate
values.
Do not enter the robot's movement range while power

is supplied to the controller.
Doing so could result in a serious accident, injury, or death.
xii
Safety cautions
• Operation and handling

Do not touch the controller or robot during operation.
The controller and robot unit become hot during operation, and
touching them could result in burn injuries.
Do not remove the controller or HT1 covers, and do

not attempt to disassemble or modify them.
Doing so could result in fires or equipment failure.
Do not touch or operate the controller or HT1 with wet

hands.
Doing so could result in electrical shocks or equipment failure.
Immediately turn off the power if abnormal odors,

sounds, or smoke are noticed during operation.
Failing to do so could result in electrical shocks, fires, or equipment
failure. Stop operation immediately, and contact your YAMAHA
representative.
• Maintenance and inspection
Perform maintenance and inspection tasks only when

instructions for doing so are provided by YAMAHA.
Maintenance and inspections performed by a person who lacks the
proper knowledge or training is extremely hazardous.
Shut off the power to the controller before performing

inspections and maintenance tasks.
Shut off the power and wait at least 10 minutes before beginning the tasks.
Failing to do so could result in electrical shocks or burn injuries from
touching areas which are still hot or from touching components where a
high-voltage condition remains for a short period after a power OFF.
xiii
Safety cautions
CAUTION
Use the controller and robot only in the prescribed
combinations.
Unsuitable combinations could result in fires and equipment failure.

2.3 Wiring
■ Ground terminal
The controller must be grounded to prevent electrical shocks in case of electrical
leakage, and to prevent equipment malfunctions due to electrical noise. 1
A Class D or higher grounding (grounding resistance of 100 Ω or less) is required.
Be sure that ground is securely connected.

WARNING
Tighten the ground terminal screw to the torque shown below. 2

Recommended Tightening Torque 0.75 N·m
■ Installing wiring breakers

Leakage breaker
The controller drives the motors by PWM control, thereby creating a high-frequency 3
leakage current flow which could cause external leakage breaker malfunctions.
Therefore, when installing an external leakage current breaker, be sure to select the
optimum sensitivity current rating (I∆ n). (Refer to the leakage breaker manufacturer's
data sheets to select the optimum product compatible with inverters.)
4
Power Supply Type Leakage Current
Main power supply (L,N)
Total 1mA
Control power supply (L1, N1)
1. Leakage current is measured by a leak tester (Hioki Electric 3283), with the low- 5
pass filter (100Hz) turned on.
2. When using multiple controllers, use the sum of the leakage currents from each
controller.
CAUTION 3. Be sure that the controller is securely grounded.
4. Stray capacitance between the cable and the FG may vary depending on the cable
installation condition, causing the leakage current to fluctuate.
6
Circuit protector
An inrush current (several times to 10 times the rated current) occurs at the
instant the controller is turned on, or at the instant robot motors begin to run.
When installing an external circuit protector, select a circuit protector that

2.12 Safety circuit construction example

This section describes category-specific safety circuit configuration examples using 1
a Handy Terminal which has an ENABLE switch.
Customers should install the appropriate safety measures for their system by
referring to the safety circuits shown in 2.12.2, "Circuit configuration examples", in
order to use single-axis robots more safely.
2
2.12.1 Performance level
To comply with the machinery directives, the "performance level (PL)" required of
the safety circuit must be evaluated.
Performance levels (PL) are determined by the following parameters: 3
l Major factors that determine performance levels
1. Category
2. MTTFd (Mean Time To Dangerous Failure)
3. DCavg (Average Diagnostic Coverage)
4. CCF (Common Cause Failure) : Checklist score > 65 ?
4
(Please obtain the data on each component from the component manufacturer.)
The performance level (PL) of a safety circuit is determined by the following flow.
l Flow for determining performance levels 5
1. Determine the "performance level (PLr) required of the safety circuit" by means
of risk assessment.
2. Configure the safety circuit that satisfies the requirements of the category that
meets PLr. 6
3. Calculate the safety circuit's "performance level (PL)" from the MTTFd, DCavg,
and CCF of the devices used for the safety circuit, and then make sure that the
calculated PL is equal to or higher than the "performance level (PLr) required
of the safety circuit" (PLr ≤ PL).
7
In the customer's final system, the performance level (PLr) required of the safety
circuit should be determined by means of risk assessment, and then the safety
circuit with the corresponding performance level (PL) should be configured.

2.12.2 Circuit configuration examples

1 The following shows category-specific safety circuit configuration examples using

4.00 (m/s 2) × 70% = 2.80 (m/s 2).

6: Push
Specifies the electrical current limit value during a push operation. The push
force is specified as a percentage (%) of each robot's rated current. 1
A 100% "push force" is equal to the rated current, and the thrust generated by the
rated current is called the "rated thrust". The rated thrust indicated by each robot's
CAUTION specifications is the theoretical (guideline) thrust when the motor is running at its
rated current. The actual thrust varies according to friction conditions, etc.. 2
7: Zone (-)
8: Zone (+)
"Zone (-)" specifies the personal zone output (PZONE) range's lower limit (minus-
direction limit). 3
"Zone (+)" specifies the personal zone output (PZONE) range's upper limit (plus-
direction limit).
The personal zone output can be specified for each point data, and it switches
ON when the robot's current position enters the personal zone.
4
The following example shows a personal zone set as the absolute position range of
100.0 to 150.00mm, as measured from the origin point.

Specifies the near width zone (distance tolerance relative to target position) for
the "near width output". The "near width output" switches ON while the robot is
passing through the near width zone.
7
When the RUN type is "Decel Push", this range represents the position (distance
from target position) where deceleration ends and the push status begins.

10: Jump
Specifies the next point No. when movement to a next operation is to occur after
1 a positioning completion. If this setting is specified as "0", there is no movement
to a next point (operation ends).

■ JOG+ / JOG-
5
While this input is ON in the MANUAL mode, JOG movement to the specified
direction's (+/-) soft limit occurs. When this input switches OFF, a deceleration
stop occurs. (See section 5.4.2 "JOG movement".)
■ SPD
6
Switches the overall positioning operation speed between two levels.
* Assigned to JOG+ terminal when "Speed switch function" (K17) is set to "Enable".
CAUTION
This function is available from controller's software version 1.06.111 onwards. 7
Refer to "5.3.8 Speed switch function" in Chapter 5 for more details.
NOTE
■ MANUAL
The MANUAL mode is established when this input switches ON. The MANUAL
mode status is output to MANU-S.
■ ORG
This input executes a return-to-origin operation, thereby setting the robot's
coordinates and enabling positioning operations. The return-to-origin method
varies according to the robot type and configuration. (See section 5.2 "Origin
search (return-to-origin)".)
■ /LOCK (interlock)
A deceleration stop occurs if this input switches OFF during operation. This input
must be ON in order to operate the robot.

■ START
This input begins positioning to the point data specified by the PIN0 to PIN7 point
1 No. select input.
This input is enabled only when the MANUAL mode is OFF.

NOTE
■ TEACH
2 This input sets (teaches) the current position at the point data position specified
by PIN0 to PIN7 (point No. select).
The TEACH input is only enabled when in the MANUAL mode (MANUAL = ON), with the
NOTE /LOCK (interlock) input OFF.
3
■ RESET
The following operations occur at the leading edge of the RESET signal ON.
(1) Alarm reset
After an alarm has occurred and its cause has been eliminated, the alarm
4 status is cleared when this signal is switched ON. After the alarm status clears,
the /ALM signal switches ON.
Some alarm statuses cannot be cleared by the RESET signal. (See Chapter 6
"Troubleshooting".)
5 (2) Point No. output clear
The POUT0 to POUT7 outputs are reset (all points OFF).
(3) Relative positioning's "remaining movement amount" clear
When restarted after a relative positioning stop, the "remaining movement
amount" for the previous relative positioning operation is cleared.
6 ■ SERVO
A servo ON status is established while this signal is ON. The servo ON status is
output to SRV-S.
A servo ON is not possible while an alarm is active.
7 A "servo OFF" should be performed only when operation is stopped. Do not use
CAUTION "servo OFF" to perform emergency stops.

*1 : For details regarding how to configure "emergency stop" and "main power" related
safety circuits (external main power breaker circuit), see section 2.10 "Connecting
the EXT connector".
3 *2 : The ORG-S signal is assigned to one of the OUT0 to OUT3 control outputs. It is
factory-assigned to OUT3 prior to shipment.
*3 : A delay of 5ms or longer is required between the point No. input and the START
command input in order to ensure that the point No. is specified.
4 • Initial processing time

The internal system's initial processing occurs for approximately 1 second
following a power ON. The END output switches ON when initial processing
ends. However, when using a field network such as CC-Link, etc., additional
5 initial processing time may be required for communication, depending on the
network type and the number of slave units. Therefore, the END output timing
following the end of internal initial processing will vary.
• Communication check (field network)
In a field network, always check that the communication state is normal before
6 starting operation. When using the host unit's communication status flag to
monitor the communication state, allow a time delay of about 200ms after
recognizing a normal state, and then start operation. If the time delay is short,
the controller output information may not be read correctly, so the operation
7 cannot start normally.

output function) I/O parameter setting. For details, see " ■ I/O Parameters" item in
section 3.4.2 "Parameter details".

5.2 Origin search (return-to-origin)

1 An origin point must be determined in order for this controller to operate a robot in a single-
axis coordinate system. This operation is called an "origin search" (or "return-to-origin").
Performing a return-to-origin sets the robot's coordinates and enables positioning.
5.2.1 Origin point detection method
The following methods are available to detect the origin point. Each detection
2 method is set as follows:
Origin Detection Method Setting
Stroke-end method
Sensor method
Mark method
3 : Factory setting;
Absolute function
: Supported; : Not supported
The absolute function is enabled by connecting the absolute battery (optional).

Once the absolute battery has been connected and a single return-to-origin has
been executed, further return-to-origins are not required at subsequent power
ONs because the origin position information is saved.
4 ■ Stroke-end (torque detection) method
Movement in the return-to-origin direction occurs when a return-to-origin begins, and
continues until the mechanical end is struck. The movement direction is reversed
at that time by motor torque detection, and returns by an amount which is unique to
each robot. Movement then stops, and a return-to-origin end status is established.

■ Sensor method
Movement in the return-to-origin direction occurs when a return-to-origin begins,
7 and movement stops when the sensor detects the origin point dog. A return-to-
origin end status is then established.
Return-to-origin direction (K14) = 0 (CCW) Return-to-origin direction (K14) = 1 (CW)
Sensor Sensor
O S S O
K13 K13
Motor side Return-to-origin direction Motor side Return-to-origin direction
S: Return-to-origin start position; 0: Origin point; K13: Return-to-origin speed
■ Mark method
When the mark method is specified (K66 (return-to-origin method): "Mark") as
origin point detection method, movement in the return-to-origin direction occurs
when a return-to-origin begins, and movement stops at the nearest motor
reference position. A return-to-origin end status is then established.
The appropriate return-to-origin method is factory-set for each robot according to its
CAUTION type, and this factory setting should not be changed.

5.2.2 Origin point and coordinates relationship

Coordinates are determined in accordance with the return-to-origin direction.
The opposite direction from the return-to-origin direction is the "plus" direction.
1
This direction (coordinate) setting can be reversed by changing the K15 ("Origin
Coordi.") parameter setting.

■ "Origin shift amount" setting

The origin point coordinates can be changed by changing the K16 (Origin Shift
5
Amount) parameter setting.
The origin point coordinates are therefore this parameter's setting value.
■ Machine reference
When an origin search (return-to-origin) is performed on a robot using the stroke 6
end (torque) or sensor method, a slight difference in distance occurs between
the position where the origin signal is detected and the reference position of the
motor's position sensor. This difference is called the machine reference and is
usually expressed as a percent. The machine reference is factory-adjusted to
within 25% to 75%. (The adjustment range varies according to the robot type.
7
For details, refer to the user's manual for the robot being used.) The machine
reference can be checked by executing a return-to-origin from the optional
Handy Terminal (HT1) or from the support software (TS-Manager).
The machine reference must be readjusted if it is not within the 25 to 75% range (or if it is
outside the allowable range of the robot being used). For details on the adjustment
NOTE procedure, please contact us.

5.3 Positioning operation

A positioning operation can be performed by creating the required point data ("RUN 1
type", "Position", "Speed", "Accel.", data, etc.), specifying the desired Point Nos.
at PIN0 to PIN7 (point No. select), and then executing the START command input.
Positioning can be executed as absolute position movement (ABS), as relative
position movement (INC), or by a "push" or "merge" operation, etc.
5.3.1 Basic operation

The positioning operation (absolute and relative position movement) and its
relationship to the point data is explained here.

■ Setting the "Position" data

(1) When the RUN type is "ABS" 5
Positioning occurs to the target position defined by the "position" data.
[Example]：
If positioning to the 300.00mm position is specified when the current stop position is 50.00mm:
50.00mm 300.00mm
6
Origin point Current position Target position
(2) When the RUN type is "INC"
Positioning occurs with the value defined by the "position" data representing
the amount of movement from the current stop position.
[Example] ： 7
If positioning to the 300.00mm position is specified when the current stop position is 50.00mm:
50.00mm 350.00mm
Origin point
Movement amount = 300.00mm
Current position
If relative positioning (INC) is stopped while in progress and then restarted, movement
occurs for only the remaining movement amount. To perform new relative positioning from
TIP the stopped position, the RESET command must first be executed to clear the remaining
movement amount.
"Remaining movement amount" movement occurs only at interlock stops. When a

servo OFF occurs due to an alarm or by an "emergency stop", etc., the relative
CAUTION positioning's remaining movement amount clears, and the next relative positioning
operation begins from the original start position.

■ Setting the "Speed", "Accel.", and "Decel." data

(1) When using the "Standard setting" point type
1 The "Speed" and "Accel." settings are specified as a percentage of the optimal
positioning speed and acceleration values for each robot type, based on
that robot's maximum speed and maximum payload acceleration values. The
"Decel." is specified as a percentage of the "Accel." setting.
2 Speed "Speed" setting range: 1 to 100 [%]

When 100%, the max. speed is
Max. speed = 1200.00 [mm/s]
Max. acceleration = 8.00 [m/s2]
1200.00 [mm/s]. Max. payload acceleration = 4.00 [m/s2]
Speed
Acceleration Deceleration
3 "Deceleration" setting range: 1 to 100 [%]

Set as a percentage of the
"Acceleration setting range: 1 to 100 [%] acceleration value.
When 100%, the max. payload accel.
is 4.00 [m/s2].
4 Time
(2) When using the "Custom setting" point type

The "Speed" and "Accel." settings are specified by adopting the maximum
speed and acceleration (max. payload acceleration with 0kg payload)
5 values for each robot type as the maximum setting values. If the specified
acceleration value exceeds the max. payload acceleration defined by the
payload setting, the max. payload acceleration value is used as the setting
value.
6 Speed "Speed" setting range: 0.01 to 1200.00 [mm/s]

The max. setting value is the max.
Max. speed = 1200.00 [mm/s]
Max. acceleration = 8.00 [m/s2]
speed of each robot type. Max. payload acceleration = 4.00 [m/s2]
Speed
Acceleration Deceleration
7
"Acceleration setting range: 0.01 to 8.00 [m/s2] "Deceleration" setting range: 1 to 100 [%]
The max. input value is the max.
speed of each robot type. Set as a percentage of the acceleration value.
The max. acceleration is the max.
payload acceleration.
Time
Selecting "Standard setting" or "Custom setting"

Select "Standard setting", or "Custom setting" as the Point Type setting at the initial
processing performed by the TS-Manager support software (optional).

■ Maximum payload acceleration and the payload

The maximum payload acceleration varies according to the payload setting. The
optimum "maximum payload acceleration" is determined based on the robot's
registered payload weight. Two "maximum payload acceleration" settings can be
1
selected by "flag" acceleration selection.

■ Relationship between "maximum payload acceleration" and "acceleration"
In the "Standard setting" point type, the acceleration is optimized within the
maximum payload acceleration, based on the positioning speed and movement
distance. The "acceleration" and "maximum payload acceleration" are the same 4
in cases where the actual operation speed reaches the robot's maximum speed,
but in all other cases, the optimum acceleration is calculated for the positioning
operation.
In the "Custom setting" point type, the specified acceleration setting becomes
the actual operation acceleration unless it exceeds the maximum payload
acceleration. In that case, it is limited by the maximum payload acceleration (the
5
operation acceleration cannot exceed the maximum payload acceleration).

Accel. 1 = accel. 2 = accel. data
7
Accel. 2 = optimized value based on accel. 1
<With standard setting> <With custom setting>
■ Setting the speed override
When required for safety during trial operation, etc., the overall positioning
operation speed can be adjusted by the K9 (Speed Override) parameter setting.
The actual operation speed will be as shown below.
Speed = speed data specified at each point data × speed override (K9) / 100
• Speed command error at "Custom setting" setting:

The specified speed setting's error can be calculated based on the relationship
between the motor's "resolution per turn" and the lead length
Example: When the resolution = 16384 (pulses per turn), and lead length (movement
amount per turn) = 20.00mm:
CAUTION The number of pulses per 1mm is 16384 ÷ 20 = 819.2
If the speed is set as "0.01mm/s":
819.2 0.01 = 8.192 8pps (decimal values are truncated), therefore,
a maximum of error of 2.4% (0.192/8.000) may occur.

■ Acceleration S-curve
The TS series features an S-curve function (standard item) to ensure smooth
1 acceleration/deceleration. This results in a maximum acceleration which is 1.4
times that of a trapezoidal acceleration/deceleration format.

BUSY signal switches ON. A malfunction may occur if the point No. is not set
CAUTION properly due to an insufficient delay time.
Moreover, if the host unit's timer is used to specify the delay time, be sure to
consider the timer response accuracy to ensure that the actual delay time is 5ms or
longer.

■ Point No. outputs

An answer-back for the point Nos. used in the positioning operation occurs at the
1 POUT0 to POUT7 point No. outputs. This output can be set to occur "WITH" (at
movement start), or "AFTER" (at positioning end) by the K25 (POUT select) I/O
parameter. (This parameter is factory-set as "AFTER".)

5.3.3 Positioning merge operation

The positioning movement speed can be changed while in progress by performing
positioning in the merge operation mode.

The figure below shows an example of the following merge operation: "operation 1 (P1
positioning) operation 2 (P2 positioning) operation 3 (P3 positioning).

· Select "ABS merge" or "INC merge" as the RUN type, then set the next point to be merged
at the "Jump" item. 6
· Even if a "merge" RUN type is selected, merging will not occur if the "Jump" setting is "0".
NOTE In this case, standard positioning occurs.
· If the merge destination target positions are in both the forward and reverse directions, a
deceleration stop occurs, followed by positioning in the opposite direction.

When performing merge operations, be sure to create an operation pattern which
CAUTION avoids the deficiencies shown below.
(1) When the deceleration distance following a merge is insufficient:

The inadequate acceleration and deceleration times in the above examples

could hinder robot operation.

5.3.4 Push operation

A push operation is performed at the positioning operation. During the push
operation, the torque is limited in accordance with the push force being used,
1
allowing workpieces to be grasped and press-fit.

(END) 6
• Movement speed during push operation
A push operation is performed by suppressing the torque that is generated by
limiting the current. Since this operation also suppresses the current needed to
CAUTION move the robot, a problem may occur if the movement speed is high.
Set the push speed to meet the following conditions:
7
Speed during push operation ≤ 20.00 [mm/s]
At Ver.1.02.102 and later controllers, the maximum push operation speed is limited
NOTE according to the push speed.
■ Push force
The push force is specified as a percentage of the rated current for each robot type.
• About maximum push force
A thrust generated at the push upper limit is called "maximum push force". The
maximum push force indicated in each robot's specifications is the theoretical
value (guideline). So, the accrual thrust may vary depending on working
CAUTION conditions, such as friction and others.
• About push upper limit
This push upper limit shows the maximum setting value which can be set by the
push force. This value is unique to each robot.

■ Push judgment time

This setting is used as the reference for "operation end" judgments at push
1 operations. The "operation end judgment" is made when the time during which
the torque level is at the push force reaches the K5 (push judgment time) RUN
parameter setting. If a push operation was stopped and then resumed, the
judgment time count is the total time during which the torque was at the push
force level.

(operation end)
"Push end" conditions: (T1 + T2 + T3 push judgment time (K5)
■ Selecting the operation which follows the push judgment

4 The operation which occurs after the push operation ends (after push judgment)
can be selected as another push operation (push continue) or as a positioning
operation. This selection is made at the K4 (push mode) RUN parameter. (Default
setting: "Push continue")
5 ■ Push failure judgment
If positioning to the target position is completed before the push judgment has
ended, this is processed as a "push failure". This "push failure" function can be
enabled/disabled by the K4 (push mode) RUN parameter setting.
6 If the intended push operation cannot be performed, possible causes are:

・Push judgment time is too short.
・Acceleration during push operation is too large.
・Push operation was started too soon after an operation other than push was performed.
7 CAUTION In these cases, taking account of the effects on the object to be pushed, make
adjustments such as to extend the push judgment time, reduce the acceleration, and
set a timer before starting push operation.

5.3.5 Deceleration push operation

Deceleration ends at the position set as the "Near width" value (distance) short of
the target position, and the push operation then begins in accordance with the K6
1
(push speed) RUN parameter setting.

operation. 7
· The torque limit remains in effect until the next operation begins.
A "near width" distance should be specified which allows an adequate distance for
the deceleration speed to be reached. A fast push speed and very small "near width"
CAUTION distance, for example, could hinder operation.

5.3.6 Continuous operation

1 "Continuous operation" refers to consecutive positioning operations which occur in
response to an initial START command input. When one positioning operation ends,
and the "Timer" specified delay (wait) time elapses, the next positioning operation
begins for the "Jump" specified point No. Operation ends when there are no more
"Jump" settings.

· The next positioning point No. for continuous operation is specified by the "Jump" setting.
· If a delay (wait) time is desired before proceeding to the next positioning operation, it can
be specified at the "Timer" setting.
NOTE · When "Jump" is not specified (set to 0), the operation ends when that positioning is
completed.
When the "POUT select" I/O parameter is set to "AFTER", the point No. output occurs after
TIP each positioning operation, regardless of the timer setting.

5.3.8 Speed switch function

1 The overall positioning operation speed can be switched between two levels from
the host equipment by using the speed switch input (SPD).
■ Assigning method
When you set the "Speed switch function" (K17) to "Enable", the speed switch
(SPD) will be assigned to JOG+ input. SPD will be ON at the same time as the
2 selection of point number, and the positioning operation will be performed at
the speed calculated by multiplying the current speed by the value specified at
"Switched speed" (K18).
* Cannot be assigned in the manual mode (MANUAL=ON).
3 SPD Speed
OFF Speed 1 = Specified speed
ON Speed 2 = Specified speed × Switched speed (K18) / 100
* Specified speed means "speed data specified at each point data × speed override (K9) / 100".

Delay time (Td) setting

Because remote commands are processed across multiple channel (word) information, a
prescribed time period is required for each area's information to be refreshed. Therefore, after
each command option setting, a delay time (Td) is required before the command is set. For
"Td" details, refer to the operation manuals for the network and host types being used.

5.6 Operation modes
5.6 Operation modes

1 In addition to I/O control from a host unit (PLC, etc.), the TS series also offers
communication control from a personal computer (running the TS-Manager support
software) and from Handy Terminal (HT1). In order to use these tools in a safe manner,
the desired operation mode can be selected to enable exclusive operation.
To select the operation mode, use the TS-Manager or HT1.
2 • Normal mode (NRM)
This mode permits both I/O control and communication control from the PC or HT1.
• Monitor mode (MON)
This mode permits full I/O control, but communication control from the PC or
3 HT1 is limited to "monitoring" only, and data editing is not possible. Data can be
transmitted from the controller to the PC in this mode.
• Debug mode (DBG)
Communication control from the PC or HT1 is possible in this mode, but I/O
4 control inputs are prohibited.

■ Operation mode functions
Each mode and its available functions are shown below.

: Permitted : Prohibited
When in a mode "safety" status, the robot operation is limited to the "safety" speed.
7
• Normal mode allows operation by I/O control and communication control. However,
if an operation is attempted by one control method while operated by the other
method, unexpected operation may occur or communication may fail. Use only one
of these control methods in Normal mode.
• In Monitor mode, the [STOP] button on the PC software and the STOP key on the HT1
CAUTION are disabled. To stop the robot during operation by a method other than I/O control,
press the emergency stop button.
• In Debug mode, I/O control input is disabled, so the robot does not stop by interlock
input. To stop the robot during operation, use the [STOP] button on the PC software
or the STOP key on the HT1, or press the emergency stop button.
The robot normally moves a high speeds. In order to ensure safety when performing
tasks within the robot movement range, or when performing trial operations, etc., the
WARNING "safety speed" should be selected at those times. The "safety speed" is factory-set to
250mm/s prior to shipment.

5.7.2 Zone output function
This function outputs information which indicates whether or not the robot's current
position is within a specified zone, and it can be used to check the robot's position 7
from a host unit, or to recognize zones where movement is permitted or prohibited,
etc. The zone boundaries can be set by the K7 (Zone -) and K8 (Zone +) RUN
parameters.

No. outputs. If multiple alarms have occurred, the highest priority alarm No. is
output. The alarm No. output function can be enabled/disabled by the K30 (Alarm
No. output function) I/O parameter setting.

5.7.4 Changing the payload

The TS series automatically sets the acceleration and optimizes positioning
5 operations based on the payload which has been defined. However, in conveyance
systems, the payload can vary greatly depending on whether or not the conveyance
objects are loaded or not. In such cases, selection is possible from 2 payload types
for each operation. The payload selection is made at each point data's "Flag" setting.

leaks from the display due to damage and adheres to skin or clothes, wash it off
immediately with soap and water. Then consult a physician.
WARNING · Do not wind the connection cable around the HT1 body when storing, and do not
bend it sharply. Doing so might break the wires in the connection cable. 9
· Do not use an extension cord with the connection cable.
· Never disassemble or modify any part of the HT1. Doing so will cause failures or
malfunctions.

• Safety connector (HT1-D only)
Use this connector along with the
emergency stop or ENABLE
switch to configure an external
safety circuit. (Refer to section 1.2,
6 "Connecting to the external safety
circuit (HT1-D)" for more details.

1.2 Connecting to the external safety circuit (HT1-D)

Using the safety connector on the HT1-D allows configuring an external safety
circuit with the HT1-D emergency stop button or ENABLE switch.

supplied 15-pin D-sub connector are no higher than 30V DC and 1A.
Pins 1 and 14, and pins 2 and 15 on the supplied 15-pin D-sub connector are shorted
prior to shipment. When connecting the HT1-D contacts to the external emergency
stop circuit, change the wiring as shown in the above diagram to short pins 14 and 15
6 CAUTION together.
Never attempt to extend the shorting wire between pins 14 and 15. Doing so might
cause noise in the wiring that interferes with HT1-D or controller operation and
causes faulty operation. This wiring should be kept short.

2. Connecting or disconnecting the HT1

The HT1 can be connected or disconnected from the controller as needed 1
regardless of whether controller power is on or off.
· Do not modify the HT1 cable. Modified cables might cause communication errors or
malfunctions.
· When connecting the HT1 to the controller or disconnecting it from the controller, 2
always grip it by the connector body itself.
CAUTION · A poor connection or inserting the connector the wrong way can result in failure or
malfunctions. Be sure that the cable is securely connected.
· When unplugging the connector from the controller, pull it straight out so as not to
bend the connector pins. 3

Introduction
Introduction
The TS series robot controller allows you to write the point data or operate the robot 1
using a communication device, such as a personal computer through the RS-232C
communication.
This "Communication Command Guide" explains how to set the communication
parameters necessary to perform the communication between the communication
device and the TS series, and also explains the communication command 2
specifications.
Before reading this section, read the precautions and descriptions stated in the
"Controller Guide" (main part of this manual) to understand the point data and
parameter data, as well as controller functions and usage.

1.2 Communication command specifications

The TS series robot controller provides ASCII character string communication
commands to communicate with an external communication device.
The communication commands are classified into four categories as follows.
Type Contents
Robot operation command Operates or stops the robot.
Status change command Changes the servo or brake status.
Edit command Writes the parameter or point data.
Query command Reads the data or robot status.
The basic format of the communication command is as follows.

Data transmission format
@<command>[<data number/status>][.n] c/r l/f
@<command>[<data number>][.n]=<setting value> c/r l/f
n: Node number
Data response format
OK.n c/r l/f
NG.n=<alarm number>c/r l/f
RUN.n c/r l/f
END.n c/r l/f
n: Node number
• All communication commands consist of an ASCII character string that begins
with a start code '@'(=40h) and ends with c/r(=0Dh)l/f(=0Ah).
• 'n' (node number) is used for the daisy chain connection. One host communication
device communicates with one robot controller, or with all the daisy-chained
controllers (up to 16 controllers).
When 'n' (node number) is omitted, commands are sent to all the daisy-chained controllers.
NOTE
Make sure to perform automatic node number setting when you first use the daisy-
chained controller or when you have replaced the controllers.
To perform the node number setting, execute "Automatic node number assignment"
CAUTION in the support software TS-Manager or send the "Automatic node number setting
(SETID)" command (communication command).
• The number of bytes, which can be output by one command response, is 255.
• " , " (comma) means the same as c/r l/f during data transmission.

Writes the setting value to the individual data of a specified point, and saves
Meaning
it into the memory.
Function
Writes the setting value to the individual data of a specified point. The written data is
saved into the memory (EEPROM).
The command may vary depending on the type of individual data. For details, see
the table below.
■ Command and data type
Unit
Command Type
M Operation type -
P Position 0.01mm
S Speed % 0.01mm/s
AC Acceleration % 0.01m/s 2
DC Deceleration %
Q Push %
ZL Zone (-) 0.01mm
ZH Zone (+) 0.01mm
N Near width 0.01mm
J Jump -
F Flag -
T Timer ms
There is a limit to the number of data writing cycles for the memory (EEPROM). So,
when it is required to frequently write the data to the memory, use commands
CAUTION described in "point data writing 2".
The individual data of the point data related to the position or speed may include the decimal
point due to the specifications. However, when handling such data using the communication
command, all of data are handled as integer values. For example, when the position data is
NOTE -2
20.00 [mm], the communication command handles this value as "2000[10 mm]" not
including the decimal point.
For point data details, see Chapter 3, section 3.2 "Point data" of the Controller Guide.
TIP

Setting
2 @P1.1=30000 c/r l/f
OK.1 c/r l/f

• Even when the setting value is written using this command, the value is not saved into the
memory. So, the value is returned to its previous value after the power has been turned
off, and then turned on again. When the setting value needs to be saved into the memory,
it is necessary to write the operation type (M) after the setting value has been written.
• The individual data of the point data related to the position or speed may include the
NOTE decimal point due to the specifications. However, when handling such data using the
communication command, all of data are handled as integer values. For example, when
the position data is 20.00 [mm], the communication command handles this value as
-2
"2000[10 mm]" not including the decimal point.
• This command is valid from version 1.04.xxx or higher.
For point data details, see Chapter 3, section 3.2 "Point data" of the Controller Guide.

Meaning Writes the setting value to a specified parameter.
Function
Writes the setting value to a specified parameter.
When parameters need to be edited, do not edit parameters not described in this
CAUTION guide. Doing so may cause a communication failure or malfunction.
• Some parameter data may include the decimal point due to the specifications. However,
when handling such data using the communication command, all of data are handled as
integer values. For example, when K1 ((-) software limit) is 20.00[mm], the communication
-2
NOTE command handles this value as "2000[10 mm]" not including the decimal point.
• The operation parameter, I/O parameter, and option parameter you have changed become
valid after the power has been turned off, and then turned on again.
Setting
<Parameter number> : 1 to 138

controllers are connected, they may not operate properly.
• Make sure that there are no daisy-chained controllers having the same node number
WARNING before sending other command.
If there are controllers with the same node number, perform automatic node number
setting again. If you do not do this, the system may not operate properly.
3
Communication example (16 daisy-chained controllers)
@SETID c/r l/f Performs automatic node number setting
OK.1 c/r l/f Node number 1 setting end
:
If you receive several identical responses, there is a duplication of node number.

[Example] When reading the node number (K38) from all the nodes by query command
@?K38 c/r l/f K38.1=1 c/r l/f
OK.1 c/r l/f
CAUTION K38.2=2 c/r l/f
OK.2 c/r l/f
Duplication
K38.2=2 c/r l/f
OK.2 c/r l/f
In this case, be sure to perform automatic node number setting.

1.2 Wiring
Be sure to shut off the control power to the controller before connecting the 1
WARNING controllers in a daisy chain.
To connect controllers in a daisy chain, the YAMAHA-specified daisy chain

connection cables must be used. The number of connection cables required is the
number of controllers to be connected plus one.
Also a computer with the TS-Manager software installed and one communication
2
cable for connecting the computer with the controller are required.
For details regarding the connection of personal computer and Handy Terminal, refer to“2.5
NOTE Connecting the communication unit”in Chapter 2. 3
To connect with your personal computer, follow the steps below.
1 Connect the communication cable to the COM1 port on the controller

that will be connected with the computer.

• Select either the USB or D-Sub connection cable for the communication cable. To
perform the communication through the USB port of a communication device, such
1 as a personal computer, use the USB communication cable. If the D-Sub
communication cable is connected to the USB port through a commercially available
USB conversion cable, the operation cannot be guaranteed.
• Do not modify the communication cable. This can cause communication errors and
equipment failure.
2 CAUTION • Always grasp the connector body when connecting/disconnecting the
communication cable at the controller. Pulling on the cable can cause equipment
failure or breaking of wire.
• An incorrectly inserted connector or poor contact condition can cause malfunctions
3 • When disconnecting the connector from the controller, pull the connector straight

3 Connect the other end of the daisy chain cable (black connector) to the
COM1 port on the destination controller to be daisy-chained.
In this way, two controllers have been connected. By using the same procedure, up 1
to 16 controllers can be daisy-chained.
• The daisy chain cable is a dedicated cable for connecting controllers in a daisy
chain. So, do not use the daisy chain cable for other equipment. This may cause
equipment failure.
• Make sure each connector is facing correctly and insert it straight inwards.
• Make sure the metal parts of the connector do not come in contact with the external
power supply terminals, etc.
• Make sure there are no metallic objects such as pins or needles making connect
between the connector pins. These might cause heat, fire, or damage.
• Do not disassemble, modify or make a direct solder connection since this might
cause heat, fire, or damage.
• Do not let water or moisture get on the unit. Do not touch the connector with moist
hands since this might cause electrical shocks.
WARNING • Do not apply strong impacts to the unit since this might cause breakdowns.
• When inserting or removing the connector grip it by the connector body. Do not pull
on the cable since this might cause wire breakage or connection defects.
• If the cable becomes worn or damaged then promptly stop using it and ask for repair
at the dealer where you purchased or contact our sales office.
• Do not place heavy items on the cable or forcefully bend or pull on the cable since
this might cause fires or breakdowns.
• Never connect to any equipment other than the specified model since this might
damage the internal IC.
• If you notice smoke or a strange odor then remove the cable, stop using the
equipment, and ask for repair at the dealer where you purchased or contact our
sales office.

2. Node number setting

1 2.1 Automatic node number assignment function
Each daisy-chained controller can be distinguished from each other by being
assigned a "node number".
2 "Automatic node number assignment function" (hereafter referred to as "Automatic

node number assignment") of the support software TS-Manager is used to set node
numbers. They can also be set using the "Automatic node number setting (SETID)"
command, one of the communication commands.
3 When you connect controllers in a daisy chain, be sure to perform the automatic node
number assignment. Also be sure to do it when another controller is added after the
automatic node number assignment has been performed once.
WARNING If multiple controllers with the same node number exist on a network, data
communication may not be performed correctly. (Refer to "2.1.2 When controllers
with same node number exist on network".)
• To use the TS-Manager, it is required to install the TS-Manager software on your

computer.
• The daisy chain function is not supported by the TS-Manager software with the
CAUTION version 1.2.0 and earlier. Make sure to use the software with the later version than
1.2.0. If the TS-Manager with the earlier version is already installed on your
computer, first uninstall the software, and then install the new one.
