The brake can be released while BKRL signal is set to ON. If a brake is installed in the actuator,
the brake is automatically controlled by servo ON/OFF. Releasing the brake may be required to
move the slider and/or the rod by hand in case of installation of the actuator in the machine or
direct teach
*1
.
This operation can be done by break release signal BKRL as well as the brake release switch
ON the front panel of the controller.
*1 Direct teaching : This operation is intended to get coordinate values to the position by
moving the slider and/or the rod by hand.
Warning
● Take sufficient care to release the brake. Inappropriate brake release may cause people
to be injured and/or the actuator, the work and/or the machine to be damaged.
● After the brake is released, always make the brake applied again. Any operation with
the brake remaining released is extremely dangerous. The slider or rod may drop to
cause people to be injured and/or the actuator, the work and/or the machine to be
damaged.
● Make certain that this signal is turned OFF (brake is activated) when the power is
supplied to the controller.
● It is prohibited to switch over between AUTO and MANU while this signal is ON (brake is
released). Reset signal RES has two features, or alarm reset under occurrence of an
alarm and operation interruption (cancellation of remaining moving distance) under
temporary stop.
For the operation interruption under temporary stop, refer to the description of the
operation in each pattern.
