1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
1.1 Summary
The Mitsubishi MELSERVO-J3 series general-purpose AC servo is based on the MELSERVO-J2-Super series
and has further higher performance and higher functions.
It has position control, speed control and torque control modes. Further, it can perform operation with the
control modes changed, e.g. position/speed control, speed/torque control and torque/position control. Hence, it
is applicable to a wide range of fields, not only precision positioning and smooth speed control of machine tools
and general industrial machines but also line control and tension control.
As this new series has the USB or RS-422 serial communication function, a MR Configurator installed personal
computer or the like can be used to perform parameter setting, test operation, status display monitoring, gain
adjustment, etc.
With real-time auto tuning, you can automatically adjust the servo gains according to the machine.
The MELSERVO-J3 series servo motor with an absolute position encoder which has the resolution of 262144
pulses/rev to ensure more accurate control as compared to the MELSERVO-J2-Super series. Simply adding a
battery to the servo amplifier makes up an absolute position detection system. This makes home position
return unnecessary at power-on or alarm occurrence by setting a home position once.
(1) Position control mode
An up to 1Mpps high-speed pulse train is used to control the speed and direction of a motor and execute
precision positioning of 262144 pulses/rev resolution.
The position smoothing function provides a choice of two different modes appropriate for a machine, so a
smoother start/stop can be made in response to a sudden position command.
A torque limit is imposed on the servo amplifier by the clamp circuit to protect the power transistor in the
main circuit from overcurrent due to sudden acceleration/deceleration or overload. This torque limit value
can be changed to any value with an external analog input or the parameter.
(2) Speed control mode
An external analog speed command (0 to
speeds) is used to control the speed and direction of a servo motor smoothly.
There are also the acceleration/deceleration time constant setting in response to speed command, the
servo lock function at a stop time, and automatic offset adjustment function in response to external analog
speed command.
(3) Torque control mode
An external analog torque command (0 to
To prevent unexpected operation under no load, the speed limit function (external or internal setting) is also
available for application to tension control, etc.
10VDC) or parameter-driven internal speed command (max. 7
8VDC) is used to control the torque output by the servo motor.

Using input device, control can be switched between position
control and speed control.
Using input device, control can be switched between speed
control and torque control.
Using input device, control can be switched between torque
control and position control.
High-resolution encoder of 262144 pulses/rev is used as a
servo motor encoder.
Merely setting a home position once makes home position
return unnecessary at every power-on.
You can switch between gains during rotation and gains during
stop or use an input device to change gains during operation.
This function suppresses vibration at the arm end or residual
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 a personal computer installed MR
Configurator with a servo amplifier.
MR Configurator is necessary for this function.

If the input power supply voltage had reduced to cause an
alarm but has returned to normal, the servo motor can be
restarted by merely switching on the start signal.
Command pulse train form can be selected from among three
different types.
Forward rotation start, reverse rotation start, servo-on (SON)
and other input device can be assigned to certain pins of the
CN1 connectors.
Trouble (ALM), dynamic brake interlock (MBR) and other
output device can be assigned to certain pins of the CN1
connectors.
ON/OFF statuses of external I/O signals are shown on the
display.
Output signal can be forced on/off independently of the servo
status.
Use this function for output signal wiring check, etc.
Voltage is automatically offset to stop the servo motor if it does
not come to a stop at the analog speed command (VC) or
analog speed limit (VLA) of 0V.
