1.2 Outline of Product
The positioning unit FX
2N
-10GM and the positioning unit FX
2N
-20GM (hereafter referred to as
"FX
2N
-10GM", "FX
2N
-20GM" or "positioning unit" when indicating the both models) are special
units to output pulse trains.
The positioning unit allows you to control positioning using a stepping motor or servo motor via
a drive unit.
1) Number of control axes (The number of axes indicates the number of controlled motors.)
One FX
2N
-10GM can control one axis. One FX
2N
-20GM can control two axes.
(The FX
2N
-20GM is equipped with linear/circular interpolation functions.)
2) Positioning language
The positioning unit is equipped with a dedicated positioning language (cod instructions)
and sequence language (basic instructions and application instructions).
The FX
2N
-10GM can perform position control using programs saved in the PLC main unit
without using the dedicated positioning language. (This is called the table method.)
3) Manual pulse generator
Manual feed is enabled when a general-purpose manual pulse generator (open collector
type) is connected.
4) Absolute position (ABS) detection
Returning to the zero point at every startup can be saved when a servo amplifier equipped
with absolute position (ABS) detection function is connected.
5) Connected PLC
Positioning data can be read/written when an FX
2N
/
2NC
Series PLC is connected.
When an FX
2NC
Series PLC is connected, an FX
2NC
-CNV-IF is required.
Also the positioning unit can independently operate without any PLCs.
