Chapter 1 Overview
This user’s manual describes the standard of positioning module, installation method, the method to use each positioning function,
programming and the wiring with external equipment.
1.1 Characteristics
The characteristics of positioning module are as follows.
(1) The positioning module is available for XGB Series. (It can’t be used with XBM-Dx-xxS.)
(2) Various positioning control function
It has various functions needed for positioning system such as positioning control, speed control etc.
(a) Up to 150 operation data including positioning address and operation method, operation pattern is available to set for each axis.
With this operation data, positioning for each axis is carried out
(b) Various operations are available.
1) Position Control
2) Speed Control
3) Synchronous Control
4) Linear Interpolation
5) Circular Interpolation
(c) Switching Control in operation is available.
1) Position/Speed Control Switching
2) Speed/Position Control Switching.
(d) Various Homing Control Function.
1) 5 methods are available for Homing
a) The origin detection after DOG Off
b)The origin detection after deceleration in case of DOG On
c) The origin detection by DOG
d) The origin detection by DOG and upper-lower limit
e) The origin detection by upper-lower limit
2) Available to execute the positioning control (floating origin setting) from random position to the origin of machine
(3) Easy maintenance
Various data such as positioning data, parameter etc. are saved on flash memory in module. Therefore, data will be saved
forever (The frequency of writing is limited to 100,000)
(4) The number of positioning module using in one basic unit is not limited
(But, it is available to use within the range satisfied with the capacity of 5V source supply current of basic unit.)
(5) Self-diagnosis, monitoring, test by strong positioning software package is available.
(a) Monitoring (Module & External Input/output Signal) Function
(b) Reading and Saving Module Parameter/Operation Data
(c) Operation data edition of each axis is available in Excel program
(6) Applicable XGB basic unit and XG5000 version for positioning module
XGB basic unit Version
XBC – Dx-xxH V1.8 or upper
XEC – Dx-xxH V1.2 or upper
XG5000 V3.1 or upper
