1. To prevent electric shock, note the following
WARNING
Before wiring and inspections, turn off the power and wait for 15 minutes or more until the charge lamp
turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P+ and N- is safe with a voltage tester and others.
Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition, when confirming whether the charge lamp is off or
not, always confirm it from the front of the servo amplifier.
Ground the servo amplifier and servo motor securely.
Any person who is involved in wiring and inspection should be fully competent to do the work.
Do not attempt to wire the servo amplifier and servo motor until they have been installed. Otherwise, it
may cause an electric shock.
Do not operate switches with wet hands. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.
The cables should not be damaged, stressed, loaded, or pinched. Otherwise, it may cause an electric
shock.
To prevent an electric shock, always connect the protective earth (PE) terminal (marked ) of the servo
amplifier to the protective earth (PE) of the cabinet.
To avoid an electric shock, insulate the connections of the power supply terminals.
2. To prevent fire, note the following
CAUTION
Install the servo amplifier, servo motor, and regenerative resistor on incombustible material. Installing
them directly or close to combustibles will lead to smoke or a fire.
Always connect a magnetic contactor between the power supply and the main circuit power supply (L1,
L2, and L3) of the servo amplifier, in order to configure a circuit that shuts down the power supply on the
side of the servo amplifier’s power supply. If a magnetic contactor is not connected, continuous flow of a
large current may cause smoke or a fire when the servo amplifier malfunctions.
Always connect a molded-case circuit breaker, or a fuse to each servo amplifier between the power
supply and the main circuit power supply (L1, L2, and L3) of the servo amplifier (including converter unit),
in order to configure a circuit that shuts down the power supply on the side of the servo amplifier’s power
supply. If a molded-case circuit breaker or fuse is not connected, continuous flow of a large current may
cause smoke or a fire when the servo amplifier malfunctions.
When using the regenerative resistor, switch power off with the alarm signal. Otherwise, a regenerative
transistor malfunction or the like may overheat the regenerative resistor, causing smoke or a fire.
Provide adequate protection to prevent screws and other conductive matter, oil and other combustible
matter from entering the servo amplifier and servo motor.

1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
POINT
In MELSERVO-J4 series, ultra-small capacity servo amplifiers compatible with
48 V DC and 24 V DC power supplies are available as MR-J4W2-0303B6. Refer
to chapter 18 for details of MR-J4W2-0303B6 servo amplifiers.
1.1 Summary
The MELSERVO-J4 series of multi-axis servo amplifiers inherits the high performance, sophisticated
functions, and usability of the MR-J4-B servo amplifiers, and ensures space saving, reduced wiring, and
energy saving.
The MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier is connected to controllers, including a servo system controller, on the fast
synchronization network, SSCNET III/H. The servo amplifier directly receives a command from a controller to
drive a servo motor.
One MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier can drive two or three servo motors. The footprint of one MR-J4W_-B servo
amplifier is considerably smaller than that of two or three MR-J4-B servo amplifiers. You can install MRJ4W_-B servo amplifiers without clearance between them. This makes your system more compact.
The multi-axis structure enables multiple axes to share the SSCNET III cable, control circuit power supply
cable, and main circuit power supply cable. This ensures reduced wiring.
For the MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier, the parameter settings allows you to use a rotary servo motor, linear
servo motor, and direct drive motor for each axis. The axes can be connected to a rotary servo motor, linear
servo motor, and direct drive motor, which have different capacity. Using a linear servo motor or direct drive
motor simplifies the system, and using the MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier downsizes the equipment, enhances
the equipment performance, and ensures space saving.
Using regenerative energy generated when a servo motor decelerates ensures energy saving.
Depending on the operating conditions, the regenerative option is not required.
As the MR-J4-B servo amplifier, the MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier supports the one-touch tuning and the realtime auto tuning. This enables you to easily adjust the servo gain according to the machine.
The tough drive function and the drive recorder function, which are well-received in the MELSERVO-JN
series, have been improved. The MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier supports the improved functions. Additionally,
the preventive maintenance support function detects an error in the machine parts. This function provides
strong support for the machine maintenance and inspection.
On the SSCNET III/H network, the stations are connected with a maximum distance of 100 m between them.
This allows you to create a large system.
The MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier supports the Safe Torque Off (STO) function. When the MR-J4W_-B servo
amplifier is connected to a SSCNET III/H-compatible servo system controller, in addition to the STO function,
the servo amplifier also supports the Safe Stop 1 (SS1), Safe Stop 2 (SS2), Safe Operating Stop (SOS),
Safely-Limited Speed (SLS), Safe Brake Control (SBC), and Safe Speed Monitor (SSM) functions.
The MR-J4W_-B servo amplifier has a USB communication interface. Therefore, you can connect the servo
amplifier to the personal computer with MR Configurator2 installed to perform the parameter setting, test
operation, gain adjustment, and others.

Additionally, this function can be disabled. Refer to section 7.5 for disabling this
function. This is used by servo amplifiers with software version B4 or later. Check
the software version using MR Configurator2.
High-resolution encoder of 4194304 pulses/rev is used as the encoder of the rotary
servo motor compatible with the MELSERVO-J4 series.
Merely setting a home position once makes home position return unnecessary at
every power-on.
Using an input device or gain switching conditions (including the servo motor
speed) switches gains.
This function suppresses vibration at the arm end or residual vibration of the
machine.
The machine resonance suppression filter is a filter function (notch filter) which
decreases the gain of the specific frequency to suppress the resonance of the
mechanical system.
When a load is mounted to the servo motor shaft, resonance by shaft torsion
during driving may generate a mechanical vibration at high frequency. The shaft
resonance suppression filter suppresses the vibration.
Servo amplifier detects mechanical resonance and sets filter characteristics
automatically to suppress mechanical vibration.
Suppresses high-frequency resonance which occurs as servo system response is
increased.
Analyzes the frequency characteristic of the mechanical system by simply
connecting an MR Configurator2 installed personal computer and servo amplifier.
MR Configurator2 is necessary for this function.
This function provides better disturbance response in case low response level that
load to motor inertia ratio is high for such as roll send axes.
Suppresses vibration of ±1 pulse produced at a servo motor stop.
Automatically adjusts the gain to optimum value if load applied to the servo motor
shaft varies.
Used when the built-in regenerative resistor of the servo amplifier does not have
sufficient regenerative capability for the regenerative power generated.
The pins that output the output devices, including ALM (Malfunction) and INP (Inposition), can be assigned to certain pins of the CN3 connectors.
Output signal can be forced on/off independently of the servo status.
Use this function for output signal wiring check and others.
Jog operation, positioning operation, motor-less operation, DO forced output, and
program operation
MR Configurator2 is necessary for this function.
Using a personal computer, you can perform the parameter setting, test operation,
monitoring, and others.
Linear servo system can be configured using a linear servo motor and liner
encoder.
One click on a certain button on MR Configurator2 adjusts the gains of the servo
amplifier.

1-phase 200 V AC for the input power supply will not comply with the SEMI-F47
standard.
This function makes the equipment continue operating even under the condition
that an alarm occurs.
The tough drive function includes two types: the vibration tough drive and the
instantaneous power failure tough drive.
This function continuously monitors the servo status and records the status
transition before and after an alarm for a fixed period of time. You can check the
recorded data on the drive recorder window on MR Configurator2 by clicking the
"Graph" button.
However, the drive recorder will not operate on the following conditions.
1. You are using the graph function of MR Configurator2.
2. You are using the machine analyzer function.
3. [Pr. PF21] is set to "-1".
4. The controller is not connected (except the test operation mode).
5. An alarm related to the controller is occurring.
This function is a functional safet

You can check the cumulative energization time and the number of on/off times of
the inrush relay. Before the parts of the servo amplifier, including a capacitor and
relay, malfunction, this function is useful for finding out the time for their
replacement.
MR Configurator2 is necessary for this function.
This function calculates the power running and the regenerative power from the
data, including the speed and current, in the servo amplifier. MR Configurator2 can
display the data, including the power consumption. Since the servo amplifier sends
data to a servo system controller, you can analyze the data and display the data on
a display with the SSCNET III/H system.
From the data in the servo amplifier, this function estimates the friction and
vibrational component of the drive system in the equipment and recognizes an
error in the machine parts, including a ball screw and bearing.
MR Configurator2 is necessary for this function.
Fully closed system can be configured using the load-side encoder. (not available
with the MR-J4 3-axis servo amplifiers)
This is used with servo amplifiers with software version A3 or later. Check the
software version using MR Configurator2.
The function transmits position information of a scale measurement encoder to the
controller by connecting the scale measurement encoder in semi closed loop
control.
Used by servo amplifiers with software version A8 or above. (not available with the
MR-J4 3-axis servo amplifiers)
This amplifier has "J3 compatibility mode" which compatible with the previous MRJ3-B series. Refer to section 17.1 for software versions.
This enables to smoothly switch the mode from position control mode/speed
control mode to torque control mode without stopping. This also enables to
decrease load to the machine and high quality molding without rapid changes in
speed or torque. For details of the continuous operation to torque control mode,
refer to the manuals for servo system controllers.

2.2 Keep out foreign materials
(1) When drilling in the cabinet, prevent drill chips and wire fragments from entering the servo amplifier.
(2) Prevent oil, water, metallic dust, etc. from entering the servo amplifier through openings in the cabinet or
a cooling fan installed on the ceiling.
(3) When installing the cabinet in a place where toxic gas, dirt and dust exist, conduct an air purge (force
clean air into the cabinet from outside to make the internal pressure higher than the external pressure) to
prevent such materials from entering the cabinet.
2.3 Encoder cable stress
(1) The way of clamping the cable must be fully examined so that bending stress and cable's own weight
stress are not applied to the cable connection.
(2) For use in any application where the servo motor moves, fix the cables (for the encoder, power supply,
and brake) with having some slack from the connector connection part of the servo motor to avoid
putting stress on the connector connection part. Use the optional encoder cable within the bending life
range. Use the power supply and brake wiring cables within the bending life of the cables.
(3) Avoid any probability that the cable sheath might be cut by sharp chips, rubbed by a machine corner or
stamped by workers or vehicles.
(4) For the cable installation on a machine where the servo motor moves, the bending radius should be
made as large as possible. Refer to section 10.4 for the bending life.
2.4 SSCNET III cable laying
SSCNET III cable is made from optical fiber. If optical fiber is added a power such as a major shock, lateral
pressure, haul, sudden bending or twist, its inside distorts or breaks, and optical transmission will not be
available. Especially, as optical fiber for MR-J3BUS_M/MR-J3BUS_M-A is made of synthetic resin, it melts
down if being left near the fire or high temperature. Therefore, do not make it touched the part, which can
become hot, such as heat sink or regenerative option of servo amplifier.
Read described item of this section carefully and handle it with caution.
(1) Minimum bend radius
Make sure to lay the cable with greater radius than the minimum bend radius. Do not press the cable to
edges of equipment or others. For the SSCNET III cable, the appropriate length should be selected with
due consideration for the dimensions and arrangement of the servo amplifier. When closing the door of
cabinet, pay careful attention for avoiding the case that SSCNET III cable is held down by the door and
the cable bend becomes smaller than the minimum bend radius. For the minimum bend radius, refer to
section 11.1.2.

r
(2) Prohibition of vinyl tape use
Migrating plasticizer is used for vinyl tape. Keep the MR-J3BUS_M, and MR-J3BUS_M-A cables away
from vinyl tape because the optical characteristic may be affected.
Optical cordCable
(3) Precautions for migrating plasticizer added materials
Generally, soft polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene resin (PE) and fluorine resin contain non-migrating
plasticizer and they do not affect the optical characteristic of SSCNET III cable. However, some wire
sheaths and cable ties, which contain migrating plasticizer (phthalate ester), may affect MR-J3BUS_M
and MR-J3BUS_M-A cables.
In addition, MR-J3BUS_M-B cable is not affected by plasticizer.
A chemical substance may affect its optical characteristic. Therefore, previously check that the cable is
not affected by the environment.
(4) Bundle fixing
Fix the cable at the closest part to the connector with bundle material in order to prevent SSCNET III
cable from putting its own weight on CN1A/CN1B connector of servo amplifier. Optical cord should be
given loose slack to avoid from becoming smaller than the minimum bend radius, and it should not be
twisted.
When bundling the cable, fix and hold it in position by using cushioning such as sponge or rubber which
does not contain migratable plasticizers.
If adhesive tape for bundling the cable is used, fire resistant acetate cloth adhesive tape 570F (Teraoka
Seisakusho Co., Ltd) is recommended.

2. INSTALLATION
(5) Tension
If tension is added on optical cable, the increase of transmission loss occurs because of external force
which concentrates on the fixing part of optical fiber or the connecting part of optical connector. Doing so
may cause the breakage of the optical fiber or damage of the optical connector. For cable laying, handle
without putting forced tension. For the tension strength, refer to section 11.1.2.
(6) Lateral pressure
If lateral pressure is added on optical cable, the optical cable itself distorts, internal optical fiber gets
stressed, and then transmission loss will increase. Doing so may cause the breakage of the optical
cable. As the same condition also occurs at cable laying, do not tighten up optical cable with a thing
such as nylon band (TY-RAP).
Do not trample it down or tuck it down with the door of cabinet or others.
(7) Twisting
If optical fiber is twisted, it will become the same stress added condition as when local lateral pressure or
bend is added. Consequently, transmission loss increases, and the breakage of optical fiber may occur.
(8) Disposal
When incinerating optical cable (cord) used for SSCNET III, hydrogen fluoride gas or hydrogen chloride
gas which is corrosive and harmful may be generated. For disposal of optical fiber, request for
specialized industrial waste disposal services who has incineration facility for disposing hydrogen
fluoride gas or hydrogen chloride gas.
2.5 Inspection items
Before starting maintenance and/or inspection, turn off the power and wait for 15
minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage
between P+ and N- is safe with a voltage tester or others. Otherwise, an electric
WARNING
CAUTION
It is recommended to make the following checks periodically.
(1) Check for loose terminal block screws. Retighten any loose screws.

(3) Check that the connector is securely connected to the servo amplifier.
(4) Check that the wires are not coming out from the connector.
(5) Check for dust accumulation on the servo amplifier.
(6) Check for unusual noise generated from the servo amplifier.
2.6 Parts having service lives
Service lives of the following parts are listed below. However, the service lives vary depending on operating
methods and environmental conditions. If any fault is found in the parts, they must be replaced immediately
regardless of their service lives.
For parts replacement, please contact your sales representative.
(1) Smoothing capacitor
Affected by ripple currents, etc. and deteriorates in characteristic. The life of the capacitor greatly
depends on ambient temperature and operating conditions. The capacitor will reach the end of its life in
10 years of continuous operation in normal air-conditioned environment (40 ˚C) surrounding air
temperature or less).
(2) Relays
Contact faults will occur due to contact wear arisen from switching currents. Relays reach the end of
their lives when the power has been turned on, forced stop by EM1 (Forced stop 1) has occurred, and
controller forced stop has occurred 100,000 times in total, or when the STO has been turned on and off
1,000,000 times while the servo motor is stopped under servo-off state. However, the lives of relays may
depend on the power supply capacity.
(3) Servo amplifier cooling fan
The cooling fan bearings reach the end of their life in 50,000 hours to 70,000 hours. Normally, therefore,
the fan must be changed in seven or eight years of continuous operation as a guideline.
It must also be changed if unusual noise or vibration is found during inspection.
The life is under the environment where a yearly average ambient temperature of 40 ˚C, free from
corrosive gas, flammable gas, oil mist, dust and dirt.

POINT
When you use a linear servo motor, replace the following left words to the right
words.
Load to motor inertia ratio → Load to motor mass ratio
Torque → thrust
(Servo motor) Speed → (Linear servo motor) Speed
3.1 Input power supply circuit
Always connect a magnetic contactor between the power supply and the main
circuit power supply (L1, L2, and L3) of the servo amplifier, in order to configure a
circuit that shuts down the power supply on the side of the servo amplifier’s power
supply. If a magnetic contactor is not connected, continuous flow of a large
current may cause a fire when the servo amplifier malfunctions.
When alarms are occurring in all axes of A, B, and C, shut off the main circuit
power supply. Not doing so may cause a fire when a regenerative transistor
malfunctions or the like may overheat the regenerative resistor.
Check the servo amplifier model, and then input proper voltage to the servo
CAUTION
amplifier power supply. If input voltage exceeds the upper limit, the servo amplifier
will break down.
The servo amplifier has a built-in surge absorber (varistor) to reduce noise and to
suppress lightning surge. The varistor can break down due to its aged
deterioration. To prevent a fire, use a molded-case circuit breaker or fuse for input
power supply.
Connecting a servo motor for different axis to the CNP3A, CNP3B, or CN3C
connector may cause a malfunction.
The N- terminal is not a neutral point of the power supply. Incorrect wiring will
cause a burst, damage, etc.
POINT
Even if alarm has occurred, do not switch off the control circuit power supply.
When the control circuit power supply has been switched off, optical module
does not operate, and optical transmission of SSCNET III/H communication is
interrupted. Therefore, the next axis servo amplifier displays "AA" at the
indicator and turns into base circuit shut-off. The servo motor stops with starting
dynamic brake.
EM2 has the same device as EM1 in the torque control mode.
Connect the 1-phase 200 V AC to 240 V AC power supply to L1 and L3. One of
the connecting destinations is different from MR-J3W Series Servo Amplifier.
When using MR-J4W as a replacement for MR-J3W, be careful not to connect
the power to L2.
Configure the wiring so that the main circuit power supply is shut off and the servo-on command turned off
after deceleration to a stop due to an alarm occurring, an enabled servo forced stop, or an enabled controller
forced stop. A molded-case circuit breaker (MCCB) must be used with the input cables of the main circuit
power supply.

When alarms not related to the forced stop function occur, control of motor
deceleration can not be guaranteed. (Refer to section 8.1.)
When SSCNET III/H communication shut-off occurs, forced stop deceleration
will operate. (Refer to section 3.7 (3).)
In the torque control mode, the forced stop deceleration function is not available.
3.6.1 Forced stop deceleration function
When EM2 is turned off, dynamic brake will start to stop the servo motor after forced stop deceleration.
During this sequence, the display shows [AL. E6 Servo forced stop warning].
During normal operation, do not use EM2 (Forced stop 2) to alternate stop and run. The the servo amplifier
life may be shortened.

3.6.2 Base circuit shut-off delay time function
The base circuit shut-off delay time function is used to prevent vertical axis from dropping at a forced stop
(EM2 goes off), alarm occurrence, or SSCNET III/H communication shut-off due to delay time of the
electromagnetic brake. Set the time from MBR (Electromagnetic brake interlock) off to base circuit shut-off
with [Pr. PC02].

When EM2 (Forced stop 2) turns off or
an alarm occurs during driving, the
servo motor will decelerate based on
the deceleration time constant. MBR

turn off, and then after the delay time
set in [Pr. PC16], the servo amplifier
will be base circuit shut-off status.

3.6.3 Vertical axis freefall prevention function
The vertical axis freefall prevention function avoids machine damage by pulling up the shaft slightly like the
following case.
When the servo motor is used for operating vertical axis, the servo motor electromagnetic brake and the
base circuit shut-off delay time function avoid dropping axis at forced stop. However, the functions may not
avoid dropping axis a few μm due to the backlash of the servo motor electromagnetic brake.
The vertical axis freefall prevention function is enabled with the following conditions.
Other than "0" is set to [Pr. PC31 Vertical axis freefall prevention compensation amount].
EM2 (Forced stop 2) turned off, an alarm occurred, or SSCNETIII/H communication shut-off occurred
while the servo motor speed is zero speed or less.

3.6.4 Residual risks of the forced stop function (EM2)
(1) The forced stop function is not available for alarms that activate the dynamic brake when the alarms
occur.
(2) When an alarm that activates the dynamic brake during forced stop deceleration occurs, the braking
distance until the servo motor stops will be longer than that of normal forced stop deceleration without
the dynamic brake.
(3) If STO is turned off during forced stop deceleration, [AL.63 STO timing error] will occur.

In this step, confirm that the servo amplifier and servo motor operate
normally. With the servo motor disconnected from the machine, use the test
operation mode and check whether the servo motor rotates correctly. Refer
to section 4.5 for the test operation mode.
In this step, confirm that the servo motor rotates correctly under the
commands from the controller.
Give a low speed command at first and check the rotation direction, etc. of
the servo motor. If the machine does not operate in the intended direction,
check the input signal.
In this step, connect the servo motor with the machine and confirm that the
machine operates normally under the commands from the controller.
Give a low speed command at first and check the operation direction, etc. of
the machine. If the machine does not operate in the intended direction,
check the input signal.
Check any problems with the servo motor speed, load ratio, and other status
display items with MR Configurator2.
Then, check automatic operation with the program of the controller.
The test operation mode is designed for checking servo operation. It is not for
checking machine operation. Do not use this mode with the machine. Always use
the servo motor alone.
If the servo motor operates abnormally, use EM2 (Forced stop 2) to stop it.
