Precautions in Operation 1. It is set to “high output” when the machine is delivered from the factory. There is a limit in the duty for the high output setting. Even though the transportable weight and maximum speed decrease, an operation with the duty 100% becomes available if the high output setting is set invalid in the parameters. See 1.2.1 Settings for Valid/Invalid of High Output Setting for more details. 2. Set the operation patterns.
8. Do not attempt to hit the slider or rod against an obstacle with high speed. It may destroy the coupling. 9. Make sure to attach the actuator properly by following this instruction manual. Using the product with the actuator not being certainly retained or affixed may cause abnormal noise, vibration, malfunction or shorten the product life. 10. Make sure to follow the usage condition, environment and specification range of the product.
17. When using Pulse Train Control type, pay close attention to the pulse frequency; so the frequency will no exceed the actuator specification. In the pulse train control, the acceleration/deceleration speed is also controlled by the change of the command pulse frequency from the host controller. Be careful not to exceed the maximum acceleration/deceleration speed of the actuator. The use of the actuator with excessive acceleration/deceleration rate may cause a malfunction. 18.
19. Transference of PIO Signal between Controllers Please note the following when conducting transference of PIO signal between controllers. To certainly transfer the signal between controllers with different scan time, it is necessary to have longer scan time than the one longer than the other controller. To ensure to end the process safely, it is recommended to have the timer setting more than twice as long as the longer scan time at least. 䎃 Ɣ Operation Image 䎃 PLC 䎃 (e.g.

Warning: For wiring, please follow the warnings stated below. When constructing a system as the machinery equipment, pay attention to the wiring and connection of each cable so they are conducted properly. Not following them may cause not only a malfunction such as cable breakage or connection failure, or an operation error, but also electric shock or electric leakage, or may even cause a fire. Chapter 3 Wiring • Use dedicated cables of IAI indicated in this instruction manual.
• Do not pull the cable with a strong force. Chapter 3 Wiring • Pay attention not to concentrate the twisting force to one point on a cable. • Do not pinch, drop a heavy object onto or cut the cable. • When a cable is fastened to affix, make sure to have an appropriate force and do not tighten too much. • PIO line, communication line, power and driving lines are to be put separately from each other and do not tie them together. Arrange so that such lines are independently routed in the duct.
Chapter 3 Wiring • If using a cable track, arrange the wiring so that there is no entanglement or kink of the cables in the cable carrier or flexible tube, and do not bind the cables so that the cables are relatively free. (Arrange the wiring so the cables are not to be pulled when bent.) • The occupied volume rate for the cables, etc., inside the cable track should be 60% or less. Cable Track 3.
3.7.4 Wiring of PIO Converter Power Line Connector The wires of the power supply and the emergency stop circuit are to be connected to the enclosed connector (plug).

10.5 Example of Basic Positioning Sequence (PIO Patterns 0 to 3 in PIO Converter) This section shows an example in which a simple operation box directs ERC3 to move the actuator successively to three positions on an axis. 10.5.1 I/O Assignment Emergency stop cancel EMGRST (Relay Circuit) RC Stop STOP Pause HOLD Home Return HOME Completed Position No.1 Completed Position No.2 Completed Position No.
10.5.2 Ladder Sequence [1] Servo ON (Emergency Stop) Circuit 1) It is presumed that the emergency stop release circuit installed in the operation box possesses the self-retaining circuit as shown in “3.1.3 [1] Emergency Stop Circuit”. When it comes to the emergency stop release condition, “Servo-on” signal from PLC to PCON turns ON.
[3] Pause Circuit Pause is provided by a single pushbutton. In a similar way as use of an alternate switch, push the button to make the actuator pause and push it again to release the pause of the actuator. Pushing the pushbutton leads the “pause command and pause lamp ON” state and pushing the pushbutton again brings “pause release command and pause lamp OFF”. To make it easy to understand the circuit, this circuit is designed to replace contact b input with contact a.
[4] Reset Circuit If the “Stop” button on the operation box is pushed during pause, the “Reset” signal sent from PLC to ERC3 and PIO converter are turned ON and the remaining moving distance is cancelled. In addition, this operation releases the pause. (It is because the pause is not required with no remaining moving distance.
[5] Home Return Circuit Similar to the operation circuit, this is used to determine whether the controller can be operated. (Confirmation of ready status of controller) 040 (Interlock) Turns the “Home return” signal OFF at completion of home return. It is set as it would not be able to home return again after the home return operation is complete unless “Home Return Complete” signal turns OFF.
[6] Decode Circuit of Positioning Complete Position No. The decode circuit converts the binary data of positioning complete position No. sent from ERC3 and PIO converter to PLC into the corresponding bit data. This is the timer to prevent the code reading error since the scanning is held independently by PLC and RC controller. IN13 054 200ms is set to TIM4 PEND Point Positioning Completion IN5 Chapter 10 Appendix 056 061 PM1 PM2 Completed Position No1. Completed Position No2.
[8] Position 1 Operation Circuit The main circuit is designed to process and manage signals “start” o “moving” o “positioning complete” to move the actuator to position No.1. 078 AUX7 Position 1 Positioning Start Pulse AUX17 AUX10 OUT1 STARTL Position 1 Positioning RC Start Point Start Check Display Positioning Completion PEND Startup Auxiliary Position 1 Positioning Start AUX9 a083 a087 b132 a135 b144 b151 a162 Without home return, positioning to position No.
[9] Position 2 Operation Circuit The main circuit is designed to process and manage signals “start” o “moving” o “positioning complete” to move the actuator to position No.2. This circuit indicates the same sequence as that of position No.1.
[10] Position 3 Operation Circuit The main circuit is designed to process and manage signals “start” o “moving” o “positioning complete” to move the actuator to position No.3. This circuit indicates the same sequence as that of position No.1.
[11] Commanded Position No. Output Ready Circuit The ready circuit is designed to hold start command and output commanded position No. in the binary code. Interlock is taken so that position No. command may not be specified incorrectly.

[12] Commanded Position No. Output Circuit Depending on the result of the ready circuit, this circuit converts position No. to the binary code and outputs the data from PLC to ERC3 and PIO converter. 156 AUX18 [Position No.1] OUT8 Position 1 Set Command Position 1 PC1 AUX20 Position 3 Set AUX19 [Position No.2] OUT9 Position 3 Set PC2 Command Position 2 AUX20 Position 3 Set Chapter 10 Appendix 159 [Position No.

10.6 Life 10.6.1 Product Life of Slider Type The mechanical life of the actuator is represented by the greatest moment load on the guide. The “rated load” is one factor that relates to the traveling life. There are two types of “rated load,” namely “static rated load” and “dynamic rated load”. • “Static rated load” : Load which, when applied to a stationary actuator, leaves a minor pressure mark on the contact surface.
