Selection of Circuit Interrupter

• 3 times of the rated current may flow to the controller during the acceleration/ deceleration. Select an interrupter that
does not trip with this value of current. If a trip occurs, select an interrupter that possesses the rated current of one
grade higher. (Refer to the operation characteristics curves in the product catalog.)

• Select an interrupter that does not trip with the in-rush current. (Refer to the operation characteristics curves in the
product catalog.)

• Consider the current that enables to cutoff the current even when a short circuit current is flown for the rated cutoff
current.
Rated Interrupting Current > Short Circuit Current = Primary Power Capacity / Power Voltage
Consider margin for the rated current on the circuit breaker.

[Refer to Basic Specifications]
A ground fault circuit interrupter needs to be selected carefully considering the purposes of prevention of fire and protection of
human. Use the “harmonic type” for the ground fault circuit interrupter. Also, check the leak current at the set points.
Refer to the instruction manual for the recommended models for the noise filter, clump filter and surge absorber.

● Wiring for Emergency Stop Input
The following diagram shows an example of how the emergency stop switch for the teaching pendant may
be included in the emergency stop circuit you may construct.

SCON-C/CA/CAL/CGAL/CB/CGB (For ~750W Motor)

Note 1 The power rating of the motor power-off relay turning ON/OFF with contact CR1 is 24V DC and 10mA or less.
Note 2 Connect such as a connector to L1/L2 terminals when cutting off the motor power source externally.
Note 3 CGAL/CGB Types are not equipped with a relay to enable to automatically identify a teaching tool was inserted and

switch the wiring layout. (The system I/O connector does not get short-circuited between S1 and S2 terminals even if
a teaching tool is removed. Connect the enclosed dummy plug DP-5 to the SIO connector when it is necessary to
have short-circuit.) The controller on except for CGAL/CGB Types automatically identifies that a teaching tool was
inserted. (Short-circuit is made between S1 and S2 terminals inside the controller once connection is detected.)

Note 4 Since there is no motor power cutoff relay in CGAL/CGB Types, make sure to establish a cutoff relay externally.

SCON-CGB (For 3000 to 3300W Motor)

Note 1 The power rating of the motor power-off relay turning ON/OFF with contact CR1 is 24V DC and 10mA or less.

Note 2 Connect such as a connector to L1/L2/L3 terminals when cutting off the motor power source externally.

(This controler not equipped with the drive cutoff relay mounted inside the controller.)

Note 3 It is the contact output to control the drive source breaker connected externally. The rating is 30V DC and 20mA or less.
Note 4 Connect a temperature sensor when an external regenerative resistor unit is connected.

Check of Packed Items
Are there all the delivered items?

Please contact the distributor.

Point Check Item

• Is frame ground (FG) connected?

• Has the noise countermeasure been taken?

Power Supply and Alarm Check
Connect a teaching tool such as PC, turn the mode changeover
switch to “MANU” side and turn the power on for each unit.
Select [Teaching Mode 1 Safety Speed Activated / PIO
Operation Invalid] in the teaching tool such as PC.

Check Item
Is the orange light [ALM] on
the LED status display off?

Connect the PC or teaching
pendant and check the
content of the alarm to have
the right treatment.

Safety Speed Setting
Set it in Parameter No. 35 if necessary. The safety speed is set to 100mm/s at the delivery.

Servo

ON
Turn the servo on with the operation on the teaching
tool such as PC.

Check Item
Is the green light [SV] on
the LED status display on?

If an alarm is generated, connect
the PC or teaching pendant and
check the content of the alarm to
have the right treatment.

CAUTION
Please perform this process with the actuator away from the mechanical end or
interfering subjects as much as possible.
Put the actuator away if it interferes with surroundings. It may generate an alarm if the
actuator hit the mechanical end or interfering subjects when the servo is turned on.
The slider may get slightly dropped by self-weight if servo on and off is repeatedly
performed at the same position. Be careful not to pinch the hand or damage the work.

Safety Circuit Check
Does the emergency stop circuit (drive cutoff circuit) work properly and
turn the servo off?

Target Position Setting

(This section is not necessary for □□ Direct Mode and MECHATROLINK-

III

.)
Set the target position in “Position” Box in each position table.
Perform a home-return operation first when Direct Teaching is to be performed. When moving the
actuator manually, set the Brake Release Switch to “BK RLS” side for the brake equipped type.
Put the switch back after the setting is complete.

CAUTION
To ensure safety, it is recommended that safety speed be enabled during initial movements.

If there is a vibration or abnormal
noise generated, check the actuator
if it is installed properly, the condition
for its use is below the rated
values, etc.

Test Run Adjustment

1) Check the operation with setting the safety speed invalid on the teaching tool such as PC software.

2)

Select “Monitor Mode 2 Safety Speed Invalid / PIO Available to Boot” in MANU
Operation Mode and remove the PC or teaching pendant from the controller.

3) Set the Mode Changeover Switch to “AUTO” side.

4) Conduct the Fieldbus setting on the host side.

Check Item
Turn on the power to the host side. Is the LED display on the front panel as shown below for each
Fieldbus?
