FX Series Positioning Controllers Wiring 3 Wiring of I/O 3.2.1 Example of wiring of input -10GM -20GM • Input circuit When an input terminal and a COM terminal are connected with no-voltage contact or NPN open collector transistor, the input turns on. Two or more input COM terminals are con- nected inside the PLC.
Page 58 FX Series Positioning Controllers Wiring 3 • Input sensitivity The input current of the positioning unit is 24V DC, 7 mA. However, in order to securely turn on the positioning unit, the input current should be 4.5 mA or more. In order to securely turn off the positioning unit, the input current should be 1.5 mA or less.
Page 59 FX Series Positioning Controllers Wiring 3 Selecting DC input device Example: Following products manufactured by OMRON Micro switch: Z, V, D2RV Proximity switch: TL, E2M Operation switch: A3P Photoelectric switch:E3S, E3N Imperfect contact may occur when a switch for large current is used. Input device with diodes connected in series Make sure that the voltage drop of the diodes connected in series is approximately 4 V or less.
Page 60: Output Connection Example
FX Series Positioning Controllers Wiring 3 3.2.2 Output connection example • In the positioning unit, use COM1 for both input and output (common I/O). • For pairs of inputs such as forward/reverse rotation contacts which would pose a hazard if turned ON simultaneously, provide external interlocks, in addition to interlocks in the program inside the positioning unit, to ensure that they cannot be turned ON simulta- neously.

FX Series Positioning Controllers Parameters 4 Parameters Notes on Parameters in General Set parameters to determine the operating condition of the positioning unit. The positioning unit can satisfy diversified needs through parameter setting in accordance with the operation specifications and the control specifications. Parameters are mainly classified into the following three types.
Page 78 FX Series Positioning Controllers Parameters 4 With some exceptions, each parameter is assigned a special data register (special D). When parameters are set from the panel of a peripheral unit, the same data is simultaneously set in the special Ds. The data in the special Ds can be changed using the positioning program during operation.

Page 121 FX Series Positioning Controllers Program format 5 Number of continuous paths The number of continuous paths varies depending on the operation of the special auxiliary relay M9015. When the M9015 is OFF While an interpolation operation is performed, preparation for interpolation control for the next process is performed.
Page 122 FX Series Positioning Controllers Program format 5 Operations of m codes during continuous paths When m codes of the WITH mode are specified in continuous path interpolation instructions, a series of continuous operations are performed even if the m code OFF command is not entered. When a series of operations are completed and the m code OFF command is entered, the machine proceeds to the next operation.
