Software reset

Software reset is a function to reset the internal status of the servo amplifier and obtain the same effect as cycling the power.
By performing the software reset, the setting of the servo parameters can be reflected without cycling the power.
• In the case of an alarm caused by hardware failure, thermal protection or other factors, the alarm may not
be canceled even if the software reset is performed.
• When MR Configurator2 is connected to the servo amplifier via a network, reconnection may not be
possible if the software reset is performed after changing the setting of the network.
When using servo motors with functional safety, executing software reset may trigger [AL. 016 Encoder initial
communication error 1]. If [AL. 016] occurs, cycle the power.
Precautions
• Canceling alarms is not the main purpose of the software reset function. Use of this function is not recommended for alarms
that would ordinarily be canceled by cycling the power.

The servo amplifier can be reset with the software reset button in MR Configurator2.
