specifications described in this manual.
Before using the product under conditions which are not described in the
manual or applying the product to nuclear control systems, railroad systems,
aviation systems, vehicles, safety equipment, petrochemical plants, and
other systems, machines and equipment that can have a serious influence
on lives and property if used improperly, consult your OMRON
representative.
1.3 Safety precautions
WARNING
Do not attempt to take the Unit apart and do not touch any of the
internal parts while power is being supplied.
Doing so may result in electrical shock.
WARNING
Do not touch any of the terminals or terminal blocks while power is
being supplied.
Doing so may result in electric shock.
WARNING
Never short-circuit the positive and negative terminals of the bat-
teries, charge the batteries, disassemble them, deform them by
applying pressure, or throw them into a fire.
The batteries may explode, combust or leak liquid.
WARNING
Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure
safety in the event of incorrect, missing, or abnormal signals
caused by broken signal lines, momentary power interruptions, or
other causes.
Not doing so may result in serious accidents.
WARNING
Emergency stop circuits, interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar
safety measures must be provided by the customer as external cir-
cuits, i.e., not in the Trajexia motion controller.
Not doing so may result in serious accidents.
WARNING
When the 24 VDC output (I/O power supply to the TJ2) is over-
loaded or short-circuited, the voltage may drop and result in the
outputs being turned off.As a countermeasure for such problems,
external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the
system.
WARNING
The TJ2 outputs will go off due to overload of the output transistors
(protection). As a countermeasure for such problems, external
safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

Safety warnings and precautions
HARDWARE REFERENCE MANUAL 2

1.4 Operating environment precautions
WARNING
The TJ2 will turn off the WDOG when its self-diagnosis function
detects any error.As a countermeasure for such errors, external
safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.
WARNING
Provide safety measures in external circuits, i.e., not in the Tra-
jexia Motion Controller (referred to as "TJ2"), in order to ensure
safety in the system if an abnormality occurs due to malfunction of
the TJ2 or another external factor affecting the TJ2 operation.
Not doing so may result in serious accidents.
WARNING
Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any Units.
Any attempt to do so may result in malfunction, fire, or electric
shock.
Caution
Confirm safety at the destination unit before transferring a program
to another unit or editing the memory.

1.5 Application precautions
Caution
The operating environment of the TJ2 System can have a large
effect on the longevity and reliability of the system.
Improper operating environments can lead to malfunction, failure,
and other unforeseeable problems with the TJ2 System.
Make sure that the operating environment is within the specified
conditions at installation and remains within the specified
conditions during the life of the system.
WARNING
Do not start the system until you check that the axes are present
and of the correct type.
The numbers of the Flexible axes will change if
MECHATROLINK-II network errors occur during start-up or if the
MECHATROLINK-II network configuration changes.
Not doing so may result in unexpected operation.
WARNING
Check the user program for proper execution before actually run-
ning it in the Unit.
Not checking the program may result in an unexpected operation.
WARNING
AXIS_OFFSET is fixed to a unit number. Changing the position of
the attached units can therefore result in a different axis allocation.
This can result in serious injury and/or significant damage.
WARNING
Always connect the EtherCAT master port to the IN port of the first
slave. Not doing so can result in unreliable communication and
changes to address and axes assignment of EtherCAT slaves.
WARNING
Do not swap connections between the IN and OUT port of Ether-
CAT slaves. This can result in changes of address and axes
assignment of EtherCAT slaves.
WARNING
Do not connect or disconnect EtherCAT slaves while the system is
operational. Doing so can result in unreliable communication.
Caution
Always use the power supply voltage specified in this manual.
An incorrect voltage may result in malfunction or burning.
Caution

1.7 Conformance to EC Directives Conformance
1.7.1 Concepts
The concepts for the directives EMC and Low Voltage are as follows:
EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related
EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or
machines. The actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC
standards. Whether the products conform to the standards in the system
used by the customer, however, must be checked by the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC
Directives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other
conditions of the equipment or control panel in which the OMRON devices
are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform final checks to confirm
that devices and the over-all machine conform to EMC standards.
Low Voltage Directive
Always ensure that devices operating at voltages of 50 to 1,000 VAC or 75 to
1,500 VDC meet the required safety standards.
Caution
Always check the status of the connected MECHATROLINK-II
devices in a BASIC program.
Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation.
Caution
The TJ1-CORT unit is developed to exchange I/O data between
the Trajexia system and a CANopen network.
The TJ1-CORT is not able to exchange motion commands.
Using the TJ1-CORT to exchange motion commands may result in
unexpected operation.
Caution
Although the TJ2-MC__ in most cases is backwards compatible
with TJ1-MC__, applications written for TJ1-MC__ must be tested
carefully when running on TJ2-MC__.
Not doing so may result in unexpected operation.
Caution
When using multiple TJ1-ML__ units, do not swap the MECHA-
TROLINK-cables. This can result in different axis allocation. This
can result in serious injury and/or significant damage.
Caution
nstall the unit properly.
Improper installation of the unit may result in malfunction.
Caution
Be sure to mount the TJ1-TER supplied with the TJ2-MC__ to the
right most Unit.
Unless the TJ1-TER is properly mounted, the TJ2 will not function
properly.

2 System philosophy
2.1 Introduction
fig. 1
The system philosophy is centred around the relationship between:
• System architecture
• Cycle time
• Program control and multi-tasking
• Motion sequence and axes
• Motion buffers
A clear understanding of the relationship between these concepts is
necessary to obtain the best results for the Trajexia system.
2.1.1 Glossary
Motion sequence
The Motion Sequence is responsible for controlling the position of the axes.
Servo period
Defines the frequency at which the Motion Sequence is executed. The servo
period must be set according to the configuration of the physical axes. The
available settings are 0.25ms, 0.5ms, 1ms or 2ms.
Cycle time
Is the time needed to execute one complete cycle of operations in the
TJ2-MC__. The cycle time is divided in 4 time slices of equal time length,
called "CPU slots". The cycle time is 1ms if SERVO_PERIOD=0.25ms,
0.5ms or 1ms and 2ms if the SERVO_PERIOD=2ms.

CPU slots
The operations executed in each CPU slot are:
Program
A program is a piece of BASIC code.
Process
Is a program in execution with a certain priority assigned. Low Priority
BASIC programs get assigned to process 0 to 19 and High Priority BASIC
programs get assigned to Process 20 and 21. First the process priority, High
or Low, and then the process number, from high to low, will define to which
CPU slot the process will be assigned. Process 22 to 24 are for internal
housekeeping.
Each PLC task will get assigned to process 27 to 42. Process 25 and 26 are
for internal housekeeping of the PLC engine.
2.2 Motion control concepts
The TJ2-MC__ offers these types of positioning control operations:
1. Point-to-Point (PTP) control
2. Continuous Path (CP) control
3. Electronic Gearing (EG) control.
This section introduces some of the commands and parameters used in the
BASIC programming of the motion control application.

Revision 5.0
Coordinate system
Positioning operations performed by the TJ2-MC__ are based on an axis
coordinate system. The TJ2-MC__ converts the position data from either the
connected Servo Drive or the connected encoder into an internal absolute
coordinate system.
The engineering unit that specifies the distances of travelling can be freely
defined for each axis separately. The conversion is performed through the
use of the unit conversion factor, which is defined by the UNITS axis
parameter. The origin point of the coordinate system can be determined
using the DEFPOS command. This command re-defines the current position
to zero or any other value.
fig. 2
A move is defined in either absolute or relative terms. An absolute move
takes the axis (A) to a specific predefined position with respect to the origin
point. A relative move takes the axis from the current position to a position
that is defined relative to this current position. The figure shows an example
of relative (command MOVE) and absolute (command MOVEABS) linear
moves.
2.2.1 PTP control
In point-to-point positioning, each axis is moved independently of the other
axis. The TJ2-MC__ supports the following operations:
• Relative move
• Absolute move
• Continuous move forward
• Continuous move reverse.

Revision 5.0
Relative and absolute moves
fig. 3
To move a single axis either the command MOVE for a relative move or the
command MOVEABS for an absolute move is used. Each axis has its own
move characteristics, which are defined by the axis parameters.
Suppose a control program is executed to move from the origin to an axis
no. 0 (A) coordinate of 100 and axis no. 1 (B) coordinate of 50. If the speed
parameter is set to be the same for both axes and the acceleration and
deceleration rate are set sufficiently high, the movements for axis 0 and axis
1 will be as shown in the figure.
At start, both the axis 0 and axis 1 moves to a coordinate of 50 over the
same duration of time. At this point, axis 1 stops and axis 0 continues to
move to a coordinate of 100.
The move of a certain axis is determined by the axis parameters. Some
relevant parameters are:
/i
Defining moves
fig. 4
The speed profile in this figure shows a simple MOVE operation. Axis A is
the time, axis B is the speed. The UNITS parameter for this axis has been
defined for example as meters. The required maximum speed has been set
to 10 m/s. In order to reach this speed in one second and also to decelerate
to zero speed again in one second, both the acceleration as the deceleration
rate have been set to 10 m/s2. The total distance travelled is the sum of
distances travelled during the acceleration, constant speed and deceleration
segments. Suppose the distance moved by the MOVE command is 40 m,
the speed profile is given by the figure.

Continuous moves
The FORWARD and REVERSE commands can be used to start a
continuous movement with constant speed on a certain axis. The
FORWARD command moves the axis in positive direction and the
REVERSE command in negative direction. For these commands also the
axis parameters ACCEL and SPEED apply to specify the acceleration rate
and demand speed.
Both movements can be cancelled by using either the CANCEL or
RAPIDSTOP command. The CANCEL command cancels the move for one
axis and RAPIDSTOP cancels moves on all axes. The deceleration rate is
set by DECEL.

2.2.2 CP control
Continuous Path control enables to control a specified path between the
start and end position of a movement for one or multiple axes. The TJ2-
MC__ supports the following operations:
• Linear interpolation
• Circular interpolation
•CAMcontrol.
Linear interpolation
fig. 7
In applications it can be required for a set of motors to perform a move
operation from one position to another in a straight line. Linearly interpolated
moves can take place among several axes. The commands MOVE and
MOVEABS are also used for the linear interpolation. In this case the
commands will have multiple arguments to specify the relative or absolute
move for each axis.
Consider the three axis move in a 3-dimensional plane in the figure. It
corresponds to the MOVE(50,50,50) command. The speed profile of the
motion along the path is given in the diagram. The three parameters
SPEED, ACCEL and DECEL that determine the multi axis movement are
taken from the corresponding parameters of the base axis. The MOVE
command computes the various components of speed demand per axis.
A is the time axis, B is the speed axis.

Circular interpolation
fig. 8
It may be required that a tool travels from the starting point to the end point
in an arc of a circle. In this instance the motion of two axes is related via a
circular interpolated move using the MOVECIRC command.
Consider the diagram in the figure. It corresponds to the MOVECIRC
(-100,0,-50,0,0) command. The centre point and desired end point of the
trajectory relative to the start point and the direction of movement are
specified. The MOVECIRC command computes the radius and the angle of
rotation. Like the linearly interpolated MOVE command, the ACCEL, DECEL
and SPEED variables associated with the base axis determine the speed
profile along the circular move.
CAM control
fig. 9
Additional to the standard move profiles the TJ2-MC__ also provides a way
to define a position profile for the axis to move. The CAM command moves
an axis according to position values stored in the TJ2-MC__ Table array.
The speed of travelling through the profile is determined by the axis
parameters of the axis.
The figure corresponds to the command CAM(0,99,100,20). A is the time
axis, B is the position axis.
