Connection
yThe power supply connector (CN1), data edit connector (CN3), and RS-485
communication connectors (CN6/CN7) are not insulated. When grounding the positive
terminal of the power supply, do not connect any equipment (PC, etc.) whose negative
terminal is grounded. Doing so may cause the driver and these equipment to short,
damaging both.
yWhen connecting, check the silk screen of the driver and pay attention to the polarity
of the power supply. The power-supply circuit and the RS-485 communication circuit
are not insulated. When controlling multiple drivers via RS-485 communication,
the reverse polarity of the power supply will cause a short circuit and may result in
damage to the drivers.
Operation
yUse a motor and driver only in the specied combination. An incorrect combination
may cause a re.
yProvide an emergency stop device or emergency stop circuit external to the
equipment so that the entire equipment will operate safely in the event of a system
failure or malfunction. Failure to do so may result in injury.
yBefore supplying power to the driver, turn all input signals to the driver to OFF.
Otherwise, the motor may suddenly start when the power is turned on, leading to
injury or damage to equipment.
yBefore rotating the motor output shaft manually while the motor stops, conrm that
the FREE input turns ON. Failure to do so may result in injury.
yImmediately when trouble has occurred, stop running and turn o the driver power.
Failure to do so may result in re or injury.
Maintenance and inspection
yDo not touch the terminals while conducting the insulation resistance measurement
or dielectric strength test. Doing so may cause electric shock.
Precautions for use
This chapter covers restrictions and requirements the user should consider when using
the product.
•Always use the accessory cable to connect the motor and driver.
•When conducting the insulation resistance measurement or the
dielectric strength test, be sure to separate the connection between the
motor and the driver.
Conducting the insulation resistance measurement or dielectric strength test with the
motor and driver connected may result in damage to the product.
•Preventing electrical noise
See the USER MANUAL for measures with regard to noise.
•When an alarm of overvoltage protection is generated
If vertical drive (gravitational operation) such as elevator applications is performed or if
sudden start-stop operation of a large inertial load is repeated frequently, an alarm of
overvoltage protection may be detected. If an overvoltage protection alarm is detected,
adjust the driving condition.
•Saving data to the non-volatile memory
Do not turn o the power supply while writing the data to the non-volatile memory, and
also do not turn o for 5 seconds after the completion of writing the data. Doing so may
abort writing the data and cause an EEPROM error alarm to generate.
The non-volatile memory can be rewritten approximately 100,000 times.
•Motor excitation at power ON
The motor is excited when the power is on. If the motor is required to be in non-
excitation status when turning on the power, assign the C-ON input to the direct I/O or
remote I/O. Refer to the USER MANUAL for details.
•Note on connecting a power supply whose positive terminal is grounded
The power supply connector (CN1), data edit connector (CN3), and RS-485
communication connectors (CN6/CN7) are not insulated. When grounding the positive
terminal of the power supply, do not connect any equipment (PC, etc.) whose negative
terminal is grounded. Doing so may cause the driver and these equipment to short,
damaging both. Use the accessory data setter OPX-2A to set data, etc.
Notes when the connection cable is used
Note the following points when an accessory cable is used.
•When inserting the connector
Hold the connector main body, and insert it in straight securely.
Inserting the connector in an inclined state may result in damage to terminals or a
connection failure.
•When unplugging the connector
Pull out the connector in straight while releasing the lock part of the connector. Pulling
out the connector with holding the cable (lead wire) may result in damage to the
connector.
•Bending radius of cable
Use the cable in a state where the bending radius of the cable is more than six times of
the cable diameter.
In the case of the lead wire type, use in a state where the bending radius is more than
four times of the diameter of the lead wires.
Mo
re than 6 times of cable diameter
•How to x the cable
Fix the cable at the positions near the connector so as to apply no stress on the
connector part.
Take measures so as to apply no stress on the connector by using wide clamps or by
xing at two places.
In the case of a exible cable,
this area is a movable range.
