5. Parameter Settings
z Home Direction (No. 5 ORG)
If not specified by the user, the home direction is set to the motor side before shipment.
If you must change the home direction after the actuator has been assembled to your equipment, change the setting of
parameter No. 5.
Also change the parameters for home offset, soft limits and default direction of excited phase signal detection, if
necessary.
Caution:
Rod-type actuators do not permit reversing of the home direction.
Note that if the home direction is reversed, all the entered position data will be cleared.
z Home Offset (No. 22 OFST)
Parameter No. 22 has been set to an optimal value at the factory so that the distance from the mechanical end to home
will remain constant.
The minimum setting unit is 0.01 mm.
This parameter can be adjusted in the following conditions:
[1] Align the actuator’s home with the mechanical home on the equipment after the actuator has been assembled to
the equipment.
[2] Set the home position again after reversing the factory-set home direction.
[3] Correct the minor position deviation that has generated after the actuator was replaced.
Caution:
If you have changed the home offset, the soft limit parameters must also be reviewed.
