6) Operation Mode Changeover Switch [Refer to 3.3 Operation in Pulse Train Control Mode.]
This switch is used to change from the positioner mode to the pulse train control mode or
vice versa.
Caution : For operation directed pulse trains from PLC, always set the operation
mode setting switch 11) on the front panel to “AUTO”.
7) Axis Number Setting Switch
This switch is used to set an axis number in multi-axis operation through serial
communication.
Using the SIO converter allows multiple axes to be controlled on a teaching tool such as a
PC without connection/disconnection of the connection cable connector. The SIO converter
can specify up to 16 axes with hexadecimal numbers 0 to F.
The setting of the switch is read at power-on of the controller. Changing the setting after the
power-on is invalid.
Caution : Note duplicate axis number setting, which causes a communication error
(alarm code 30C: no connection axis error) to occur and disables normal
communication.
