O verview of Synchronous Operation
1 2 8 B
The synchronous operation is a function to set an axis to be the standard (master axis) and an axis to be
synchronized (slave axis), and make the operations the master and slave axes identical (synchronous).
The features of the synchronous operation are as below.
A maximum of 2 groups can be set for the synchronous operation.
-
The master and slave axis can be set for one axis each.)
-
Two types of synchronous operation can be selected.
1. Synchronous mode A
Using this mode enables to switch the setting of the synchronous operation between "enabled" and
"disabled", and perform the synchronous operation as necessary.
2. Synchronous mode B
This mode is used to drive a large-sized table such as a carrier machine with two motors. The
synchronous operation cannot be disabled in the mode B..
Differences in the operations of synchronous modes
Synchronous
A maximum of 2 groups can be set for the synchronous group.
setting
An individual operation mode can be set for each synchronous group.
Enabled/disabled
of synchronous
It can be selected either Enabled or Disabled.

【Synchronous: When enabled】
Operates with the setting of the master axis.
Positioning
The positioning starts for the master axis.

Operation stop
The master and slave axes are operated
Pulser operation
according to the respective settings for each axis.
The positioning starts for each axis.
It is performed for each axis.
It is necessary to set the synchronous operation
Home return
to be "Disabled" when performing the home
return.

Synchronous mode A
Synchronous mode B
Only Enabled
Operates with the setting of the master axis.
The positioning starts for the master axis.
Some home return methods cannot be used.
The connection of the switch of the
positioning unit may be changed according
to the home return methods.
