6.1 Parameter Classifications
This section describes parameters critical to motion functions in the Motion Module.
Overview
Parameters are specific constants needed for Motion Module motion functions. Set these 
parameters to values appropriate for machine specifications as well as for applicable Servo-
drive (Servomotor + SERVOPACK) performance. Use a CP-717 Programming Device to 
create and edit parameters.
Parameter Tables
Parameters are classified into the following four types.
Editing Parameters
The following table describes the procedures used to create, edit, or change parameters.
Classification
Register No.
Description
Fixed Parameters
No registers
These parameters set machine, Servomo-
tor, encoder, and other mechanical condi-
tions. They are not normally changed 
once they are set, and they cannot be 
changed while the system is running.
Setting Parameters
OWC000 to OWC03F
These parameters are used to provide 
commands to the servo control section. 
They can be set from a motion program 
or ladder logic program while the system 
is running.
Monitor Parameters IWC000 to IWC03F
These parameters are servo monitor data 
reported by the servo control section. 
They can serve as reference for motion 
programs or ladder logic programs.
Servo Parameters
Pn000 to Pn601
These parameters are SERVOPACK 
parameters. They can be set from the 
Motion Parameters Window.

Motion Programs
Motion programs can be used to 
set setting parameters (output reg-
isters OwC000 to OwC03F) with 
substitution statements.

Ladder Logic 
Programs
Parameters can be set directly from 
ladder logic programs.
