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)
The current coordinates can be preset using the MC command (MC_Home).
-
Set the return-to-home operation setting to "Home Preset" in the axis settings of Sysmac Studio by OMRON Corporation.
-
Execute the MC_Home command.
- *The above is a setting example. The contact name and MC command name are optional.
[Supplement]
When the return-to-home operation is set to "Home Preset" in the axis settings, execution of MC_Home only sets the current coordinates of the PLC made by OMRON Corporation to 0, but does not set the position information of the ABZO Sensor of the AZ motor to 0.
If you would like to align the 0 position of the current coordinates of the PLC made by OMRON Corporation with the 0 position of the AZ Motor's ABZO sensor, turn the servo OFF and execute preset for both the PLC and the ABZO sensor.
