6.11 Selecting Torque Limits
6.11.2 External Torque Limits

• Linear Servomotors
* Set a percentage of the rated motor force.
Note: If the setting of Pn483 or Pn484 is too low, the force may be insufficient for acceleration or deceleration of the
Servomotor.
6.11.2
External Torque Limits
You can limit the torque only when required by the operating conditions of the machine by turn-
ing a signal ON and OFF.
You can use this for applications such as stopping on physical contact, or holding a workpiece
with a robot.
External Torque Limit Reference Signals
The /P-CL (Forward External Torque Limit) and /N-CL (Reverse External Torque Limit) signals
are used as the external torque limit reference signals. The /P-CL signal is used for the forward
torque limit and the /N-CL signal is used for the reverse torque limit.
*1. Pn483 is used for a Linear Servomotor.
*2. Pn484 is used for a Linear Servomotor.
Note: You can use the following parameters to allocate the /P-CL and /N-CL signals to other terminals.
• Pn50B = n.X (/P-CL (Forward External Torque Limit Input) Signal Allocation)
• Pn50B = n.X (/N-CL (Reverse External Torque Limit Input) Signal Allocation)
Refer to the following section for details.
