6.5 Using a Rotary Actuator in Multi-rotation Specification
Rotary actuators of multi-rotation specification models let you select multi-rotation operation or limited-rotation
operation using a parameter.
6.5.1
How to Use
(1) Home
return
When a home return command is issued, a signal from the limit switch located in the home return direction
is detected. Once a limit switch signal is detected, the actuator reverses its direction. When a limit switch
signal turns off again thereafter, the actuator travels by the home return offset specified in parameter No. 22
and completes the home return.
(2) Operation
commands
Limited-rotation specification
(Normal mode [Selected by parameter No. 79])
Multi-rotation specification
(Index mode [Selected by parameter No. 79])
Push & hold operation permitted
Push & hold operation not permitted
Absolute coordinate specification -0.15
q to 360.15q Absolute coordinate specification 0.00q to 359.99q
Relative coordinate specification -360.15
q to 360.15q Relative coordinate specification -360.00q to 360.00q
Notes
Pay attention to the setting of the PIO pattern parameter for the controllers specified below.
Each controller does not support relative coordination specification in the PIO pattern specified.
[1] PCON-C/CG: PIO pattern = 5 (User parameter No. 25)
[2] PCON-CY:
PIO pattern = 0 (User parameter No. 25)
