3.7.3 Hot line forced stop function 
 
POINT 
 
When the power supply of the servo amplifier is shut off during deceleration to a 
stop by a hot line forced stop signal, the servo motor will be stopped with the 
dynamic brake. 
For using the hot line forced stop function with MR-JE-_B servo amplifier and 
MR-J4-_B servo amplifier together, refer to app. 8 for the hot line forced stop 
function of MR-J4-_B servo amplifiers. 
 
(1) Summary 
The hot line forced stop function enables all servo motors to decelerate to a stop safely if an alarm 
occurs in a system configuration using MR-JE-_B servo amplifiers. 
Since the power supply of the MR-JE-_B servo amplifier is commonly used for main circuit and control 
circuit power supplies, if the power supply is shut off at occurrence of an alarm, servo amplifiers in which 
the alarm occurred and later cannot communicate with the controller. Thus, if an alarm occurs, the 
function outputs hot line forced stop signals to all servo amplifiers before a communication to the 
controller is cut. Then, servo amplifiers will be in the [AL. E7.1 Controller forced stop input warning] state 
and will be stopped safely. Also, the function can be disabled with a parameter. 
 
(2) Parameter setting 
The hot line forced stop function is enabled at factory setting. Setting "_ _ _ 1" in [Pr. PA27] disables the 
function. 
 
(3) Operation description 
If an alarm occurs in the second axis servo amplifier in a 4-axis system configuration, the operation will 
be as follows.

(a)  The servo amplifier in which an alarm occurred transmits the hot line alarm signal to the controller. 
 
(b)  Upon receipt of a hot line alarm signal, the controller transmits hot line forced stop signals to all 
servo amplifiers. 
 
(c)  Upon receipt of a hot line forced stop signal from the controller, [AL. E7.1 Controller forced stop input 
warning] will occur in the servo amplifier, and normally operating servo amplifiers will enable the 
servo motors to decelerate to a stop. "E7.1" will be shown on the display of the servo amplifier.
