(3) Aligning the motor position
Apply power to the controller, and then run the motor with the jog control using the PC software or teaching
pendant to align the home mark on the motor with the slit position on the coupling.
(Jog at 1 mm per second (minimum speed).)
* In certain situations such as when the controller is away from the motor, you can turn on the servo after
aligning the coupling and slit positions by hand.
Caution: Align the home mark on the motor with the slit position on the coupling, and then install
the motor/coupling into the actuator.
Never loosen the coupling on the motor side.
The slit in the coupling is provided to help correlate the actuator and encoder positions.
If the coupling is loosened, home return may not achieve a normal home position.
