(1) No.
The position data number is shown.
Warning: Be sure to specify absolute coordinates on PCON-C/CG, ACON-C/CG, SCON-C,
PCON-CA, ROBONET and ERC3 PIO converter controllers of solenoid valve mode 2,
or PCON-CY and ACON-CY controllers of solenoid valve mode 1.
If incremental coordinates are specified on these controllers, a position data error
occurs.
Also note that completion of push motion cannot be determined when the push is
specified if incremental coordinates are specified.
(2) Target position [mm]
Enter the target position to move the actuator to.
Absolute coordinate specification:Enter the target position you want to move the actuator to, based
on the distance from the home. A negative value cannot be
entered.
••Incremental coordinate specification: Enter the target position you want to move the actuator to, based
on the distance from the current position. A negative value can
also be entered.
(Negative direction on displayed coordinate system)
(3) Speed [mm/sec]
Enter the speed at which to move the actuator.
The default value varies depending on the actuator type.
(Note) For SCON-CA, PCON-CA and ERC3, an alarm will be displayed if the set value is lower than the
minimum velocity.
(4) Acceleration/deceleration [G]
Enter the acceleration/deceleration at which to move the actuator.
Basically you should set acceleration/deceleration not exceeding the rated value shown in the catalog.
The input range permits entry of values larger than the rated value shown in the catalog, but this is because
"shorter tact time when the transferring mass is significantly lighter than the rated value" is assumed.
If the load vibrates during acceleration/deceleration to present problems, decrease the value set here.
(Reference) Acceleration is explained. The same concept applies to deceleration.
1 G = 9800 mm/s
per second.
0.3 G: Acceleration at which the actuator can increase its speed up to 2940 mm/s (9800 mm/s
x 0.3) per second.

5. Operation of CON Controllers
Time
(Note) For SCON-CA, PCON-CA and ERC3, an alarm will be displayed if the set value exceeds
the rated acceleration/deceleration.
Caution
Acceleration/deceleration setting
(1) Set accelerations/decelerations not exceeding the rated acceleration/deceleration specified in the catalog or
this operation manual. If any acceleration/deceleration is set that exceeds the rated
acceleration/deceleration, the life of the actuator may be significantly reduced.
(2) If the actuator or work part receives impact or generates vibration, lower the acceleration/deceleration. If the
system is used continuously with the actuator or work part receiving impact or generating vibration, the life
of the actuator may be significantly reduced.
(3) If the load transferred by the actuator is significantly lighter than the rated payload capacity, you may be
able to set accelerations/decelerations exceeding the rating. If this is the case, the tact time can be
reduced, so contact IAI. When contacting IAI, tell us the weight, shape and installation method of your work
part and installation condition (horizontal/vertical) of your actuator.
37
(5) Push
Select "Positioning operation" or "Push-motion operation."
The factory setting is 0.
0:Normal positioning operation
Other than 0: A current limiting value is indicated, meaning that this is a push-motion operation.
Caution:With PCON, ACON, SCON-C, SCON-CA, ERC2,ERC3 and ROBONET controllers,
the value entered in the "Push" field may be rounded to a multiple of the controller's
minimum resolution. (When data is acquired from the controller)
(6) Positioning band
What this setting means is different between "Positioning operation" and "Push-motion operation."
"Positioning operation":
Define how far before the target position you want to turn the completion signal ON.
The factory setting is 0.1 mm.
Standard type
Increasing the value of positioning band quickens the start of
the next sequence operation, so the tact time can be
reduced. Set an optimal value by considering the balance of
the entire system.
5. Operation of CON Controllers
Note that on PCON-C/CG, ACON-C/CG, SCON-C, SCON-CA, ROBONET and ERC3 PIO converter controllers
of 3-point type or PCON-CY and ACON-CY controllers of proximity switch type, set the band after which
the completion signal turns ON.
PCON-C/CG, ACON-C/CG and SCON-C, SCON-CA, ROBONET and ERC3 PIO converter in solenoid
valve mode 2, PCON-CY, or ACON-CY in solenoid valve mode 1
"Push-motion operation":
Define the maximum push distance from the target position in push-motion operation.
Set an appropriate positioning band by considering the mechanical variation of the load, by making sure
positioning will not complete before the actuator contacts the load.

If incremental coordinates are specified on these controllers, a position data error
occurs.
(8) Zone +/-
Define, for the standard type, the zone in which the zone output signal turns ON.
For added flexibility, these parameters can be set differently for each target position.

(9) Threshold
With PCON-CF controllers, a load output signal (PIO) is output if the command torque exceeds the
value (%) set in "Threshold" inside the verification range.
The verification range is set by "Zone+/Zone-."
It is used to determine if press-fitting action was performed successfully.
*For details, refer to the operation manual for your PCON-CF controller.

Define the acceleration/deceleration pattern.
The factory setting is 0.
0: Trapezoid pattern
1: S-motion
2: Primary delay filter
Trapezoid pattern
* Set the acceleration and deceleration in the "Acc" and "Dcl" fields of the position table.
S-motion
The acceleration curve rises gradually at first and then suddenly shoots up in the middle.
Use this mode if you want to set high acceleration/deceleration to meet the required tact time, but
want to move the actuator gradually at the start of movement and immediately before stopping.
5. Operation of CON Controllers
* The S-motion level is set by parameter No. 56 [S-motion ratio setting]. The setting unit is %, while the
setting range is 0 to 100.
(The graph above assumes that the parameter is set to 100%.)
If 0 is set, the S-motion control is disabled.
Note that the setting made here is not reflected in jogging or inching feed performed from a PC or

4: Full servo control mode
Auto servo OFF mode
The servo is turned OFF automatically upon elapse of a specified time after completion of positioning.
(Since holding current does not flow, power consumption is reduced.)
When the PLC issues the next movement command, the servo is turned ON and then the actuator
starts moving.

The holding current can be decreased by servo-controlling the pulse motor.
Although the rate of decrease in holding current varies depending on the actuator model, loading
condition, etc., the holding current decreases to approx. one-half to one-quarter.
Note that the servo remains ON, meaning that unwanted position shift does not occur.
The actual holding current can be checked on the current monitor screen of the PC software.

(14) Vibration damping number (This information is displayed on version 1.20 or later.)
(Note) Vibration damping can be set only on SCON-CA controllers.
Vibration (resonance) of the load installed on the actuator is suppressed.
5. Operation of CON Controllers
This function works on three types of vibration.
Three parameters are provided for each type of vibration, and they comprise one set.
In the position table, set a desired parameter set for each position number where vibration damping is
required.
Setting
Vibration damping frequency
(Characteristic frequency)
Parameter numbers
0 Normal position control (no vibration damping) 1 Vibration damping parameter set 1 97 ~ 100
2 Vibration damping parameter set 2 101 ~ 104
3 Vibration damping parameter set 3 105 ~ 108
Caution
(1) Vibration can be suppressed over a frequency range of 0.5 to 30 Hz (target characteristic frequencies).
(2) This function suppresses vibration of the load induced by the actuator connected to this controller. It does
not suppress any other vibration.
(3) This function suppresses vibration in the same direction as the moving direction of the actuator. It does not
suppress vibration in any other direction.
(4) This function does not work during home return and push-motion operation.
(5) This function does not support the pulse-train input mode.
(6) The tact time may increase when a lower vibration frequency is set. If the vibration frequency is approx. 6 Hz
or below, the settling time after positioning becomes at least 150 ms.

5.6.2Entering New Data
You can enter new position data in one of four ways.
(1) Numerical input --- Enter position data directly as numerical values from the numerical
keypad on the teaching pendant. (Example of entry: P. 39)
(2) Direct teaching --- Turn off the servo control, move the slider by hand to the target position,
and then acquire the achieved position (current position) into the
position table and specify that position. (Example of entry: P. 47)
(3) Jogging --- Use [Jog+] or[Jog-] to jog the actuator to the target position, and then
acquire the achieved position (current position) into the position data
table and specify that position. (Example of entry: P. 49)
(4) Inching --- Use [Jog+] or[Jog-] to inch the actuator to the target position, and then
acquire the achieved position (current position) into the position data
table and specify that position. (Example of entry: P. 51)
Touching [Jog+] or[Jog-] once moves the actuator by the specified feed
pitch (0.01, 0.10, 0.50, 1.00 or 5.00 (mm)). Touching and holding the key
for 2 seconds will start jogging movement at 1 mm/sec. Thereafter, the
speed increases every second. This way, the actuator can be moved
more finely than when jogged.
Warning: To enter position data after the power is turned on, or enter position data beforehand
using the method of (2), (3) or (4), you must perform home return first. (Increment
specification)
Before home return is completed, jogging/inching is possible only to the mechanical end.
Operate the actuator by visually checking for potential interference.

5.7.3
5.6.3 Changing Position Data
You can change all position data by overwriting the current values.
Accordingly, four cases are considered just like when data is entered anew.
(1) Numerical input --- Enter position data directly as numerical values from the numeric keypad.
(2) Direct teaching --- Turn off the servo control, move the slider by hand to the target position,
and then acquire the achieved position (current position) into the position
data table and specify that position.
(3) Jogging --- Use [Jog+] or[Jog-] to jog the actuator to the target position, and then
acquire the achieved position (current position) into the position data table
and specify that position.
(4) Inching --- Use [Jog+] or[Jog-] to inch the actuator to the target position, and then
acquire the achieved position (current position) into the position data table
and specify that position. The axis moves by the specified pitch (0.01, 0.10,
0.50, 1.00 or 5.00 (mm)) every time an arrow key is touched. Thereafter,
the speed increases every second. This way, the actuator can be moved
more finely than when jogged.
Take note of the following points when performing a data change operation:
* In the case of numerical input, only the items overwritten from the numeric keypad will change.
* In the case of direct teaching, jogging or inching, only the target position will be updated after the
current position is acquired. The speed, etc., will remain unchanged.
* Once the position data is cleared, none of the previously set data will remain. Accordingly, the
default data values will be applied, other than positions, the next time you register position data.
To clear the position data table specified for push-motion operation and register data again, be
sure to check all position data items and enter necessary data.

Move to a position or continuously to multiple positions registered in the position table.
•Move
The actuator moves, in a single step, from the current position to the position corresponding to an
arbitrary position data number registered in the position table.
•Continuous
The actuator operates continuously from the specified position data number through successive
position data numbers.
*What is continuous movement?
Assume that the following position table has been set. If a continuous movement command is
issued from position No. 2, the actuator operates over a group of positions from the position at
which the movement command is issued through successive positions where data is available
(until the position before the one where no data is registered(*)), such as position No. 2 → No.
3 → No. 1 → No. 2, and so on.
Position Data
5. Operation of CON Controllers
On a touch-panel teaching pendant, continuous movement is only permitted over 64 positions
from position No. 000 to 063, 064 to 127, etc.
As shown in the example, the actuator returns to position No. 061 after No. 063 (returns to the
beginning of a group of successive positions where position data is entered), and moves
continuously.
It does not move from position No. 063 to No. 064.
