5. Parameter Settings

• Enable function (No. 42 FPIO4)

In ANSI-compliant teaching pendants, parameter No. 42 defines whether the deadman switch function is enabled
or disabled.
ANSI-compliant teaching pendants are to be developed in the future.

Enable (use)

Disable (not use)

The factory setting is 1 [Disable].

• Home check sensor input polarity (No. 43 AIOF)

The controller is not equipped with a home check sensor as a standard, but it can optionally be installed.
It need not be changed normally, but change the value of parameter No. 43 if the system is changed by the
customer after shipment.
Definition of setting: 0 (Standard specification, sensor not used)

1 (Home check sensor used, sensor polarity: contact a)
2 (Home check senor used, sensor polarity: contact b)

[Operational description]

[1] When a home return command is issued, the actuator moves until it contacts a mechanical end, upon which

the home check sensor signal is detected.

[2] Next, the actuator reverses its direction and moves until the home position and then stops.
[3] As long as the home check sensor signal has been changed, the controller recognizes that the home return

has completed successfully.

If the signal is not yet changed, the controller recognizes a “position deviation” and generates a “home sensor
non-detection error” while also outputting an alarm signal.
