Software for configuration and commissioning 3.2.1 FCT (Festo Configuration Tool) The Festo Configuration Tool (FCT) is the Windows-based software platform for configuration, para- meterisation and commissioning of various Festo components and devices. FCT also allows configura- tion and commissioning of the integrated drive EMCA.

With FCT, the direction of rotation can be adjusted (èFCT, page "Application Data", Register "Envir- onment", option "Inverse Rotation Polarity"). Example: rotary drives with limited positioning range Fig. 6 Dimension reference system - rotary drives with limited positioning range Festo — EMCA-EC-67-...-DIO — 2020-03d...
Page 21
Recommendation: check direction of movement in jog operation. If necessary, activate the reversal of the direction of rotation to reverse the direction (è FCT, page "Application Data", Register "Environ- ment", option "Inverse Rotation Polarity").

The reference point of the dimensional reference system is determined with the homing. All points of reference and drive limits of the dimension reference system refer directly or indirectly to the refer- ence point. The homing point is the absolute reference point for the axis zero point Festo — EMCA-EC-67-...-DIO — 2020-03d...
Page 24
Recommended: FCT displays the distance between the switching edge and index (è FCT, online tab "Homing"). • Align the reference switch in the middle between two index signals. Festo — EMCA-EC-67-...-DIO — 2020-03d...
Page 25
The position of the limit switch is searched during – positive direction homing. When successful, the drive travels back to – negative direction the next index of the encoder. This position becomes the reference point. Festo — EMCA-EC-67-...-DIO — 2020-03d...
Page 26
Then the stop position is left by travel to the axis zero point. If the drive system does not have a stop (axis of rotation), homing will never be completed. The drive then continues to travel at the parameterised search velocity. Festo — EMCA-EC-67-...-DIO — 2020-03d...
Page 27
