6.5 Using a Rotary Actuator in Multi-rotation Specification
Rotary actuators of multi-rotation specification models let you select multi-rotation operation or limited-
rotation operation using a parameter.
6.5.1 How to Use
(1) Home return
When a home return command is issued, a signal from the limit switch located in the home return
direction is detected. Once a limit switch signal is detected, the actuator reverses its direction. When
a limit switch signal turns off again thereafter, the actuator travels by the home return offset specified
in parameter No. 22 and completes the home return.
(2) Operation commands
Limited-rotation specification
(Normal mode [Selected by parameter No. 79])
Multi-rotation specification
(Index mode [Selected by parameter No. 79])
Push & hold operation permitted Push & hold operation not permitted
Absolute coordinate specification -0.15 to 360.15 Absolute coordinate specification 0.00 to 359.99
Relative coordinate specification -360.15 to 360.15 Relative coordinate specification -360.00 to 360.00
Notes
Pay attention to the setting of the PIO pattern parameter for the controllers specified below.
Each controller does not support relative coordination specification in the PIO pattern specified.
[1] PCON-C/CG: PIO pattern = 5 (User parameter No. 25)
[2] PCON-CY: PIO pattern = 0 (User parameter No. 25)
