Alarms When the motor puts into a non-excitation state if an alarm is generated 1. If an error occurs, the ALM-B output and the MOVE output are turned OFF. At the same time, the motor stops instantaneously. 2. When resetting the alarm, turn the operation command OFF, If the alarm is reset while the operation command is input, the motor may start suddenly, causing injury or damage to equipment.
Information Information The driver is equipped with a function to generate information output before an alarm is generated. This function can be utilized for periodic maintenance of equipment by setting a suitable value in the parameter of each information. For example, utilizing the “Motor temperature information” parameter can prevent equipment malfunction or production stoppage due to motor overheat.
