3.2 Function Modules
Self Configuration

Operating Procedures
This section describes the procedures for executing self configuration.
• Refer to the following section when you perform self configuration for the first time after connecting the
devices.
Self Configuration Using the DIP Switch (page 3-39)
• If the Machine Controller and the MPE720 are already connected, the self configuration can be per-
formed by using the MPE720.
Self Configuration Using the MPE720 (page 3-42)
Self Configuration Using the DIP Switch
The procedure for executing self configuration using the DIP switch depends on whether self configura-
tion is being done for the first time since the devices were connected, or if SERVOPACKs or other devices
have been added.
Both procedures are described below.
First Self Configuration after Connecting the Devices
The following procedure performs a new self configuration of all Modules, and creates new definition
files.
1. Turn OFF the power supply to the CPU Unit.
2. Turn ON only the INIT and CNFG pins on the SW1 DIP switch on the CPU Unit.
3. Turn ON the power supply to the CPU Unit.
Self configuration will be executed.
4. Confirm that the status indicators on the CPU Unit change in the following way:
• RDY: Goes out, and then lights.
• RUN: Goes out, flashes, and then lights.
1. Before performing this procedure, turn ON the power supply to the SERVOPACKs and other
devices.
2. This procedure will clear the following data:
• All definition files
• All user programs
• All registers
