2-1 Setting Initial Parameters
Input the setting values listed in the "Standard Parameter list per motor" in the specifications manual for
the initial parameters before adjusting the servo. If a wrong value is input, the initial parameter error
(ALM37) will occur. In this case, the parameter number causing an error is displayed on the NC screen.
Some parameters are determined by the machine specification and they are explained below.
2-1-1 Setting the gear ratio
Input the ratio of gear tooth. When initial parameter
error (ALM37) –error parameter number 101– occurs,
reconsider the specification as electric gear must be
overflowing.
When the machine specification is “rack and pinion”,
π is included in the deceleration ratio. In this case, the
accurate positioning is impossible to be made.
Express the π with a rough fractional number when
calculating the gear ratio.
No. Abbrev Parameter name Explanation
SV001
PC1 Motor side gear ratio
SV002
PC2 Machine side gear ratio
Calculate the reducible number of each gear tooth and set the result.
When PC1 < PC2, deceleration is set.
In case that π is included as well as “rack and pinion”, the accurate positioning is
impossible to be made as π is calculated into a rough fractional number when
calculating the gear ratio.
For accurate positioning, the full-closed loop control using a linear scale is
required.
2-1-2 Setting detector specifications
When using the linear scale, refer to the linear scale instruction manual, and set the parameters correctly.
No. Abbrev Parameter name Explanation
SV019 RNG1 Position detector resolution
For semi-closed loop (using the detector at the motor end only), set the same
value as SV020.
For full-closed loop, set in accordance with the linear scale specification.
SV020
RNG2 Speed detector resolution
Set the motor detector resolution with kp/rev (1000 pulse/1 rotation) unit.
SV025
MTYP Motor/detector type
The 2 high-order digits have to be set in accordance with the specification of the
detector at the motor end and linear scale.
Refer to the "2-7 List of MDS-C1/CH-Vx Parameters" in addition.
2-1-3 Confirming the machine specifications value
Confirm the following machine specifications value to be set in axis specification parameters.
M60S
Series
Abbrev. Parameter name Explanation
#2001 rapid Rapid traverse rate Set the rapid traverse rate.
Confirm the maximum rotation speed of the motor.
#2002 clamp Cutting feed clamp speed Specify the maximum speed of the cutting feedrate.
Even though the feedrate for G01 exceeds this value, clamped with this speed.
#2003 smgst Acceleration/deceleration
mode
Set in accordance with machine specifications. In machine tools, rapid traverse
feed is generally set to “Linear acceleration/deceleration” mode and cutting feed
is generally set to “Exponent acceleration/deceleration” mode. S-pattern (soft)
acceleration/deceleration function is occasionally used for the machine with a
large inertia.
