Applicable Products
AZ Series EtherCAT Compatible Driver:
AZD-AED, AZD-CED, AZD-KED, AZD2A-KED, AZD2B-KED, AZD3A-KED, AZD4A-KED, AZD-KRED
Control Methods: Use the motion control (MC command) of PLC (Operation mode CSP, CSV mode)
If you would like to use the internal profile of the driver (Operation mode PP, PV, HM mode), check the FAQ here.
The initial value of the resolution is 10,000 P/R.
Set 10,000 P/R for the motor resolution (the number of pulses per motor revolution) set in Sysmac Studio - axis settings by OMRON Corporation. The resolution setting of the driver can be changed, but Oriental Motor recommends using the initial value when using the MC command. If this is changed, vibration may be increased.

If you would like to configure mm or deg settings, leave the resolution setting at 10,000 P/R and set mm or deg in the axis setting of Sysmac Studio by OMRON Corporation.
Setting examples of Oriental Motor's electric actuators (electric linear slides, electric cylinders, compact electric cylinders) are shown below.
