Chapter 6: Parameters
The parameter setting methods (which are needed for the MP940 system operation) are
explained in this chapter.
Parameter Outline
This section describes the parameter outline which is needed for the MP940 motion
modules. Read this thoroughly for a complete understanding of the parameters.
Parameter Types and Classifications
The parameters are the “specified constants” which are needed for the
motion function of the MP910 modules. Set up the most suitable
parameter values so that the performance of the applied servo drives (
=
motor + amplifier) corresponds to machine specifications. To create or edit
the parameters, use the MotionWorks
TM
Programing Unit.
Parameters are classified into the following four types:
Parameter Types
Classification
Register
Number
Setting Contents
Fixed Parameters No Register
Sets up mechanical condition of machine, motor, encoder, etc.
These cannot be changed during operation because they can-
not normally be changed once set.
Setup
Parameters
OWC000 ~ OWC03F
Used for commanding the servo controller.They can be set up
from the motion program or ladder program while running.
Monitor
Parameters
IWC000 ~ IWC03F
User constants of the servo amplifier. They can be set up in the
Motion Parameter window.
Servo Amplifier
Parameters
Pn000 ~ Pn602
These are servo amplifier user parameters. They are set in the
motion parameter setup screen.
