HL-17009-3 Linear Motion Controller ESMC-K/ESMC-A/ESMC-C OPERATING MANUAL Thank you for purchasing an Oriental Motor product. This Operating Manual describes product handling procedures and safety precautions. Please read it thoroughly to ensure safe operation. • Always keep the manual where it is readily available.
1 Introduction 1 Introduction 1.1 Important note Be sure to confirm that the motorized actuator model shown on the controller key is the same as the model of the motorized actuator connected to the controller. If the two numbers do not match, the motorized actuator cannot be operated according to the specification.
1 Introduction 1.4 Compliance with the EC directives The controllers bear the CE mark indicating their compliance with the Low Voltage and EMC Directives, based on combinations with the products specified below. The controllers do not comply with the EC Directives if combined with other products. •...

1 Introduction 1.6 Controller key A controller key corresponding to the combined motorized actuator is installed on the controller. (If you have purchased a controller only, no controller key is supplied.) Controller key Motorized actuator model The controller key stores parameters relating to motorized actuator control. The controller uses these parameters to automatically set the following parameters in accordance with the specification of the combined motorized actuator: I/O parameter:...
2 Installation 2 Installation 2.1 Controller clearances required at installation Install the controller on a vertical, flat metal surface inside an enclosure placed indoors. If the controller is not installed vertically, heat generated from the controller will not be Note radiated properly and the controller may be damaged due to excessive heat.
EPCOS AG B84113-C-B110 Oriental Motor recommends the mains filters shown in the table right, based on our internal measurement results. • Install a mains filter at a point as close to the controller as possible. • Secure the input and output cables with cable clamps or the like so that they won't rise from the surface of the enclosure panel.

4 Types and functions of operations ● ● 4.2 Preset When the PRESET input is enabled using the I/O parameter “HOME/PRESET switching” and the PRESET input is turned ON, the current position will be preset. You can set a desired preset position using the I/O parameter “PRESET position.” When the PRESET input is turned ON, the data will be written to the EEPROM.
Page 25
4 Types and functions of operations Linked-motion Each time the START input is turned ON, a maximum of four operation data of the same direction can be linked. If “linked-motion” is specified for operation data No. 63, the controller will recognize that Note single-motion operation has been specified for this data.
Page 26
4 Types and functions of operations Sequence-forward operation When the M0 to M5 inputs are turned OFF and only operation data No. 0 is selected, the controller will enter the sequence-forward positioning mode. In sequence-forward positioning operation, each operation data is executed sequentially every time the START input is turned ON.
4 Types and functions of operations ● 4.4 Push-motion operation An operation in which the load is continuously subjected to pressure is called “push-motion operation”. This operation can be performed only when “push-motion” is selected as the operation function. When the actuator contacts the load during positioning operation, it will automatically switch to push-motion operation.
4 Types and functions of operations ● 4.5 Continuous operation When the FWD input is ON, the actuator moves continuously in the + coordinate direction. When the RVS input is ON, the actuator moves continuously in the – coordinate direction. •...
