Information on mounting the shock absorbers and fixed stops from Festo è Operating instructions for the drive or mounting instructions for the shock absorbers or fixed stops.
  • Page 24 If the displacement encoder slide leaves the permitted work path, the CMAX generates a corresponding error message. To avoid these error messages: • Limit the positioning range so that the displacement encoder slide is always within the permitted work path. Festo – P.BE-CPX-CMAX-SYS-EN – en 2017-09b – English...
  • Page 25: Load

    Note A pneumatic positioning axis should be operated with at least the minimum total load (è www.festo.com/catalogue). If necessary, this minimum mass load must be ensured through the use of an additional weight. The payload present can be specified for each positioning command. The controller setting of the CMAX can thus be adjusted to various loads.
