Setting the Configuration Switches
The configuration switches are used to change the level of retention function with respect to absolute data.
Disconnect the backup battery before setting the configuration switches (piano switches).
Connect the backup battery after the switch settings have been changed.
(For the location of the switches, refer to .., “Nomenclature” in “ROBONET Operation Manual – Specification.” )
Configuration switches (Slide each switch to the left to turn it “ON.” )
These switches are used to set the maximum motor speed at which absolute data can be stored, or change the mode. (The
switches are arranged in the order of , , and , from the top.)

[Speed setting switches]
If the motor speed reaches or exceeds the specified level while the controller power is off, the absolute data will be lost and an
absolute encoder error will generate. A desired motor speed can be set from among the four levels. The lower the motor
speed, the longer the backup battery will last.
*
The retention times of the backup battery are reference values in a condition where the original battery is used at normal
temperature with the motor operated intermittently for short periods at speeds within the specified range, or with the
motor not operated at all.
Even though the motor remains within the specified speed range, the retention time will become shorter if the motor is
operated continuously.
*
The default settings are “OFF” for switch and “00 rpm” for switch (ON).
