R9 - Time “in position”
At the end of each move, the controller gives an output, to signal “in position” as long as
the time register
R9/X resp. R9/Y is. The length of this pulse is adjustable in R9
(range: 0.1… 9.9 s). Setting 0.0 gives a maintained output.
R10 - Backlash dwell time
When the machine stops at the end of the overrun, it is usually desirable to have a short
delay. The time is set in register
R10 (range: 0.1… 9,9 sec.).
R12 - Tolerance window
It is possible to enter a value in Register R12 that represents an acceptable tolerance
e.g. 0.1 mm. When the actual position is within the tolerance window, the actual position
displayed is made equal to the Target position. The actual error is not lost, as the con-
troller knows the true position.
Example:
R12 = 0.2 Therefore tolerance window is +/- 0.2mm
Display without tolerance set Display with tolerance set
Note: At first start-up, the tolerance window is to be set first to “0”.
Only after a correct adjustment of
R1… R4, other values can be used here.
R13/ R14 - Min/Max software limits
Target < Limit R13 = error message ERR04
Target > Limit R14 = error message ERR05
Single operation
Immediately after a start signal, the controller checks the software limits. If the target
position is greater or smaller than the corresponding limit, the controller will stop and
show the error message on the display. The backlash distance in
R4 is considered at the
check of the Max software limit, if the backlash is activated in
R8/6 X/Y.
Manual operation
The movement will stop when software limits are reached. If moving at high speed, the
drive will drop to creep speed at a distance set in
R1 from this limit. This prevents run-
ning into the ends of the machine. The end limit values are modified by backlash value
as set in
R4, if R8/6 X/Y is selected.
R15 - Software Limit Selection
Software limits (R13 & R14) are active in accordance with the setting of R15/6
