For Sate Operations

1. Prevention of electric shocks

WARNING

! Never open the front case or terminal covers while the power is ON or the unit is running, as this may lead to electric shocks.

! Never run the unit with the front case or terminal cover removed. The high voltage terminal and charged sections will be exposed and may lead to electric shocks.

! Never open the front case or terminal cover at times other than wiring work or periodic inspections even if the power is OFF. The insides of the control unit and servo amplifier are charged and may lead to electric shocks.

! When performing wiring work or inspections, turn the power OFF, wait at least ten minutes, and then check the voltage with a tester, etc. Failing to do so may lead to electric shocks.

! Always ground the control unit, servo amplifier and servomotor with Class 3 grounding. Do not ground commonly with other devices.

! The wiring work and inspections must be done by a qualified technician.

! Wire the units after installing the control unit, servo amplifier and servomotor. Failing to do so may lead to electric shocks or damage.

! Never operate the switches with wet hands, as this may lead to electric shocks.

! Do not damage, apply excessive stress, place heavy things on or sandwich the cables, as this may lead to electric shocks.

! Do not touch the control unit, servo amplifier or servomotor terminal blocks while the power is

ON, as this may lead to electric shocks.

! Do not touch the internal power supply, internal grounding or signal wires of the control unit and servo amplifier, as this may lead to electric shocks.

2. For fire prevention

CAUTION

! Install the control unit, servo amplifier, servomotor and regenerative resistor on inflammable material. Direct installation on flammable material or near flammable material may lead to fires.

! If a fault occurs in the control unit or servo amplifier, shut the power OFF at the servo amplifier's power source. If a large current continues to flow, fires may occur.

! When using a regenerative resistor, shut the power OFF with an error signal. The regenerative resistor may abnormally overheat due to a fault in the regenerative transistor, etc., and may lead to fires.

! Always take heat measures such as flame proofing for the inside of the control panel where the servo amplifier or regenerative resistor is installed and for the wires used. Failing to do so may lead to fires.

/

−

), as this may lead to destruction or damage.

! The servo amplifier's heat radiating fins, regenerative resistor and servo amplifier, etc., will be hot while the power is ON and for a short time after the power is turned OFF. Do not touch these parts as doing so may lead to burns.

! Always turn the power OFF before touching the servomotor shaft or coupled machines, as these parts may lead to injuries.

! Do not go near the machine during test operations or during operations such as teaching.

Doing so may lead to injuries.

4. Various precautions

Strictly observe the following precautions.

Mistaken handling of the unit may lead to faults, injuries or electric shocks.

(1) System structure

CAUTION

! Always install a leakage breaker on the control unit and servo amplifier power source.

! If installation of a magnetic contactor for power shut off during an error, etc., is specified in the instruction manual for the servo amplifier, etc., always install the magnetic contactor.

! Install an external emergency stop circuit so that the operation can be stopped immediately and the power shut off.

! Use the control unit, servo amplifier, servomotor and regenerative resistor with the combinations listed in the instruction manual. Other combinations may lead to fires or faults.

! If safety standards (ex., robot safety rules, etc.,) apply to the system using the control unit, servo amplifier and servomotor, make sure that the safety standards are satisfied.

! If the operation during a control unit or servo amplifier error and the safety direction operation of the control unit differ, construct a countermeasure circuit externally of the control unit and servo amplifier.

! In systems where coasting of the servomotor will be a problem during emergency stop, servo

OFF or when the power is shut OFF, use dynamic brakes.

! Make sure that the system considers the coasting amount even when using dynamic brakes.

! In systems where perpendicular shaft dropping may be a problem during emergency stop, servo

OFF or when the power is shut OFF, use both dynamic brakes and magnetic brakes.

! The dynamic brakes must be used only during emergency stop and errors where servo OFF occurs. These brakes must not be used for normal braking.

! The brakes (magnetic brakes) assembled into the servomotor are for holding applications, and must not be used for normal braking.

! Construct the system so that there is a mechanical allowance allowing stopping even if the stroke limit switch is passed through at the max. speed.

! Use wires and cables that have a wire diameter, heat resistance and bending resistance compatible with the system.

−

III

CAUTION

! Use wires and cables within the length of the range described in the instruction manual.

! The ratings and characteristics of the system parts (other than control unit, servo amplifier, servomotor) must be compatible with the control unit, servo amplifier and servomotor.

! Install a cover on the shaft so that the rotary parts of the servomotor are not touched during operation.

! There may be some cases where holding by the magnetic brakes is not possible due to the life or mechanical structure (when the ball screw and servomotor are connected with a timing belt, etc.).

Install a stopping device to ensure safety on the machine side.

(2) Parameter settings and programming

CAUTION

! Set the parameter values to those that are compatible with the control unit, servo amplifier, servomotor and regenerative resistor model and the system application. The protective functions may not function if the settings are incorrect.

! The regenerative resistor model and capacity parameters must be set to values that conform to the operation mode, servo amplifier and servo power unit. The protective functions may not function if the settings are incorrect.

! Set the mechanical brake output and dynamic brake output validity parameters to values that are compatible with the system application. The protective functions may not function if the settings are incorrect.

! Set the stroke limit input validity parameter to a value that is compatible with the system application. The protective functions may not function if the setting is incorrect.

! Set the servomotor encoder type (increment, absolute position type, etc.) parameter to a value that is compatible with the system application. The protective functions may not function if the setting is incorrect.

! Set the servomotor capacity and type (standard, low-inertia, flat, etc.) parameter to values that are compatible with the system application. The protective functions may not function if the settings are incorrect.

! Set the servo amplifier capacity and type parameters to values that are compatible with the system application. The protective functions may not function if the settings are incorrect.

! Use the program commands for the program with the conditions specified in the instruction manual.

! Set the sequence function program capacity setting, device capacity, latch validity range, I/O assignment setting, and validity of continuous operation during error detection to values that are compatible with the system application. The protective functions may not function if the settings are incorrect.

! Some devices used in the program have fixed applications, so use these with the conditions specified in the instruction manual.

! The input devices and data registers assigned to the link will hold the data previous to when communication is terminated by an error, etc. Thus, an error correspondence interlock program specified in the instruction manual must be used.

POINT

(1) The interface board and interface card cannot be used together.

(2) On some personal computers, the digital oscilloscope may not perform sampling.

In that case, check the BIOS's ISA device memory and IRQ settings.

(For the BIOS settings, refer to the manual of your personal computer.)

(3) If, after SSCNET communication has been made, you remove the interface board and boot the personal computer without that board being reinstalled, Windows NT/98 may not start or may not run properly.

When removing the interface board from the personal computer, you need to stop the SSCNET communication driver.

For the way to stop, refer to "4.5 Stopping the SSCNET Communication

Driver".

(4) If the resume function, suspension setting, power-saving function or stand-by mode is set at the personal computer used for communication with the motion CPU, a communication error may occur.

Do not use these functions at the personal computer used for communication with the motion CPU.

(5) If the USB cable is connected or disconnected or the motion CPU is reset or turned off and on frequently during communication of the motion

CPU, an unrecoverable communication error may occur.

Disconnect the GSV application from the line* whenever possible when disconnecting or connecting the USB cable or resetting or turning on or off the motion CPU.

If a communication error is not removed, disconnect the USB cable completely and, after five seconds, connect it again. (Though an error may occur during the first communication session after this operation, the correct function is recovered at and after the second session.)

However, a communication error may not be removed even after the above operation with some personal computer models.

In this case, reset the personal computer.

* Offline state (disconnection from line)

State where there is no communication with the Motion CPU (Program or parameter reading/writing, monitoring and testing are made in the online state.)

(6) A communication error may occur according to some combination of the model of the personal computers and the USB cable and so on.

If this happens, repeat operation while referring to the displayed message.

(7) If the baud rate of the serial port of the personal computer (interface on the personal computer side) is changed for high speed communication, communication may be unsuccessful or communication retries may occur to result in slow communication, according to certain PC performance.

If high speed communication is unsuccessful, decrease the baud rate.

(8) USB cable

• The USB cable can be used with Windows 98 or with a USB driver.

• It cannot be used with Windows NT.

• If the USB cable is used, only one motion CPU can be connected.

(4) If, after SSCNET communication has been made, you remove the interface card and boot the personal computer without that card being reinstalled, Windows NT may not start or may not run properly.

For Windows NT, you need to stop the SSCNET communication driver when removing the interface card.

For the way to stop, refer to "4.5 Stopping the SSCNET Communication

Driver".

(For Windows 98, use the plug and play function to remove. Using this function will not cause such phenomena.)

(5) If the resume function, suspension setting, power-saving function or stand-by mode is set at the personal computer used for communication with the motion CPU, a communication error may occur.

Do not use these functions at the personal computer used for communication with the motion CPU.

(6) If the USB cable is connected or disconnected or the motion CPU is reset or turned off and on frequently during communication of the motion CPU, an unrecoverable communication error may occur.

Disconnect the GSV application from the line* whenever possible when disconnecting or connecting the USB cable or resetting or turning on or off the motion CPU.

If a communication error is not removed, disconnect the USB cable completely and, after five seconds, connect it again. (Though an error may occur during the first communication session after this operation, the correct function is recovered at and after the second session.)

However, a communication error may not be removed even after the above operation with some personal computer models.

In this case, reset the personal computer.

* Offline state (disconnection from line)

State where there is no communication with the motion CPU (Program or parameter reading/writing, monitoring and testing are made in the online state.)

(7) A communication error may occur according to some combination of the model of the personal computers and the USB cable and so on.

If this happens, repeat operation while referring to the displayed message.

(8) If the baud rate of the serial port of the personal computer (interface on the personal computer side) is changed for high speed communication, communication may be unsuccessful or communication retries may occur to result in slow communication, according to certain personal computer performance.

If high speed communication is unsuccessful, decrease the baud rate.

(9) USB cable

• The USB cable can be used with Windows 98 or with a USB driver.

• It cannot be used with Windows NT.

• If the USB cable is used, only one motion CPU can be connected.

(2) Antivirus software

It has been reported that when the "Norton AntiVirus 2000" antivirus software of Symantec Corporation has been installed in the personal computer, specifying Office 2000 as a control feature from an external program will run the micro virus check software, one of the "Norton AntiVirus 2000" functions, making

Office 2000 uncontrollable from other programs.

Hence, when "Norton AntiVirus 2000" has been installed, SW20RN-DOCPRNP that controls Office 2000 externally cannot be booted.

The following are the corrective actions for the above problem.

(a) When it is not necessary to make virus checks

Uninstall "Norton AntiVirus 2000".

(b) When it is necessary to make virus checks

Remove only the micro virus check software of "Norton AntiVirus 2000".

In this case, the other virus checks are performed.

For more information on the micro virus check software problems of "Norton

AntiVirus 2000", refer to the home page of Microsoft Corporation or Symantec

3.4.3 Precautions for simultaneous operation of SW6RNC-GSVE and GX Developer

(1) If SW6RN-SNETP is used for communication over SSCNET

To use the SW6RN-GSV application (communication over SSCNET) and GX

Developer (communication via RS232C/USB) simultaneously, take care of the starting and terminating sequence of applications.

[Starting sequence]

• SW6RN-SNETP ---> GSV[ ][ ]P/DOSCP/GX Developer

[Terminating sequence]

• GSV[ ][ ]P/DOSCP/GX Developer ---> SW6RN-SNETP

If the above sequence is not observed, the following phenomena will occur.

(a) If SNETP is started after GX Developer is started

Though the VLINKS window is not displayed, communication over SSCNET is performed correctly, and there is no problem in the operation.

(b) If SNETP is terminated though GX Developer is not terminated

The VLINKS window remains but it is terminated when GX Developer is terminated.

Or SNETP is started without termination of GX Developer, so that communication over SSCNET functions correctly.

Do not close the VLINKS window manually because otherwise the following phenomenon will occur.

• When SNETP is started next time, VLINKS does not start and correct communication over SSCNET becomes unavailable.

If the window is closed manually, exit from GX Developer and restart

SNETP.

(c) If GX Developer is started after SNETP is terminated, the following error may occur.

If this error occurs, terminate GX Developer then restart.
