Axis operation type, rotational axis mode
Axis-specific parameter No. 1, “Axis operation type”
No. Parameter name Default value Input range Unit
1 Axis operation type Varies by actuators 0 ~ 5 None
Explanation of setting
Define the type of actuator used.
Setting value
0: Linear movement axis Actuator other than a rotational axis
1: Rotational movement axis Rotational axis (RS-30/60, RCS2-RT6/RT6R/RT7/RT7R)
Axis-specific parameter No. 66, “Mode selection for rotational movement axis”
No. Parameter name Default value Input range Unit
66 Mode selection for rotational movement axis 0 0 ~ 5 None
Explanation of setting
Set a desired mode for a rotational movement axis.
Related parameter: Axis-specific parameter No. 7, Soft limit+
Set value
0: Normal
1: Index mode
* When the index mode is selected, the soft limit will be fixed to 359.999 mm internally.
When the index mode is selected, short-cut control is possible.
2 to 5: For future expansion
Note: The following settings cannot be selected if the actuator is of absolute specification:
If 0 (linear movement axis) is set, the infinite stroke mode cannot be set using parameter No. 68.
If 1 (rotational movement axis) is set, parameter No. 67, “Short-cut control selection” cannot
be set in the index mode.
