Software Reset

You can reset the SERVOPACK internally with the software. A software reset is used when
resetting alarms and changing the settings of parameters that normally require turning the
power supply to the SERVOPACK OFF and ON again. This can be used to change those
parameters without turning the power supply to the SERVOPACK OFF and ON again.

1. Always confirm that the system is in the SERVO OFF state and that the motor is stopped
before you start a software reset.
2. This function resets the SERVOPACK independently of the host controller. The SERVO-
PACK carries out the same processing as when the power supply is turned ON and out-
puts the ALM (Servo Alarm) signal. The status of other output signals may be forcibly
changed.
3. When you execute a software reset, the SERVOPACK will not respond for approximately three
seconds.
Before you execute a software reset, check the status of the SERVOPACK and Servomo-
tor and make sure that no problems will occur.
