Software reset
Software reset is a function to reset the internal status of the servo amplifier and obtain the same effect as cycling the power.
By performing the software reset, the setting of the servo parameters can be reflected without cycling the power.
• In the case of an alarm caused by hardware failure, thermal protection or other factors, the alarm may not
be canceled even if software reset is performed.
• When MR Configurator2 is connected to the servo amplifier via a network, reconnection may not be
possible if the software reset is performed after changing the setting of the network.
Precautions
• Canceling alarms is not the main purpose of the software reset function. If an alarm that needs to be canceled by cycling
occurs, cycling is recommended.
