This shows the PLC timing chart for operating the ELECYLINDER.
The basic process is as follows.

1 Power Power ON
EC Connection Unit
SYS LED
：
On
24VDC power supply is
turned ON.
2 Output
*ALM
E*RD
*ALM:Turns ON if no alarm
has been triggered.
E*RD: It turns on when
operation ready
(servo on)
3 Input
ST0
∆t1
When the [ST0] signal is
turned ON, home return
operation begins.
4 Output
LS0
∆t2
EC Connection Unit
Backward End LED: On
Home return operation is
complete and the unit
moves to the backward end.
5 Input
ST1
∆t2
Moves to the forward end.
6 Output
LS1
EC Connection Unit
Forward End LED: On
Moved to the forward end.
7 Input
ST0
∆t2
Moves to the backward end.
8 Output
LS0
Moved to the backward end.
9
After this, "5" to "8" repeat.
∆t1: Wait approximately 0.5 seconds from when the E*RD signal turns ON before inputting the
first command.
∆
t2: The time taken for the ELECYLINDER actually to reach the forward or backward end after
the LS signal turns ON. Consider
∆
t2 when giving instructions for the next operation from
the PLC to the ELECYLINDER.
Also,
∆
t2 varies depending on the communication time among PLC ⇔ EC connection unit
⇔
ELECYLINDER, size of payload and acceleration/deceleration.
