3.3 Connection of Servo Amplifier
3.3.1 Connection of Input Signals
For the system which uses the over limit switches and near home switch, connect them to the
I/O connector of Servo Amplifier A6B/A5B.

KEY POINTS
•
When using FP7 MC Unit in combination with Servo Amplifier A6B/A5B, the
general-purpose inputs (SI-MON3 and SI-MON4) are used as limit inputs. For
using the general-purpose monitor inputs (SI-MON3 and SI-MON4) as limit
inputs, the setting of the limit switch should be set to "A: Enabled" in the
"Axis parameter setting" menu of CMI.
•
The over-travel inhibit inputs (POT, NOT) cannot be used as the limit inputs
on the FP7 MC Unit side. Do not allocate the over-travel inhibit inputs (POT,
NOT) to the I/O connector (X4) of Servo Amplifier A6B/A5B.
