3 Precautions for use
This section covers limitations 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 and 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 equipment.
Preventing leakage current
Stray capacitance exists between the driver’s current-carrying line and other current-carrying lines, the earth and the
motor, respectively. A high-frequency current may leak out through such capacitance, having a detrimental e ect on
the surrounding equipment. The actual leakage current depends on the driver’s switching frequency, the length of
wiring between the driver and motor, and so on.When connecting an earth leakage breaker, use one of the following
products o ering resistance against high frequency current:
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation: NV series
Saving data to the non-volatile memory
Do not turn o the control power supply (24 VDC) 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.
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, connect an accessory regeneration unit.
The overvoltage alarm may generate depending on the operating condition of the motor.
When the overvoltage alarm has generated, review the operating conditions or connect an accessory regeneration
unit. Refer to p.17 for connection method.
Note on connecting a power supply whose positive terminal is grounded
The USB communication connector, CN5, CN6 (*) and CN7 (*) connector 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 this equipment to short, damaging both. When connecting, do not ground
equipment.
* Excluding the pulse input type.

* Cables represented in gray color are accessories. Use the cable for encoder when the length of the encoder cable of
motor is not enough.
Have the connector plugged in securely. Insecure connections may cause malfunction or damage
to the motor or driver.
When plugging/unplugging the connector, turn o the power and wait for the CHARGE LED to
turn o before doing so. The residual voltage may cause electric shock.
Do not wire the power supply cable of the driver in the same cable duct with other power lines or
motor cables. Doing so may cause malfunction due to noise.
The lead wires of the "cable for electromagnetic brake" have polarities, so connect them in the
correct polarities. If the lead wires are connected with their polarities reversed, the electromagnetic
brake will not operate properly.
Keep 20 m (65.6 ft.) or less for the wiring distance between the motor and driver. To extend more
than 20 m (65.6 ft.) may result in the driver heat generation or increase of the electrical noise
emitted from the product.
The control power supply (24 VDC) is required with or without an electromagnetic brake. Be sure
to connect it.
When unplugging the motor cable, do so while pressing the latches on the connector.
When installing the motor on a moving part, use an accessory exible cable having excellent ex
resistance.

7-10 Noise measures
The electrical noise is of two types: One is a noise to invade into the driver from the outside and cause the driver
malfunction, and the other is a noise to emit from the driver and cause peripheral equipments malfunction.
For the noise that is invaded from the outside, take measures to prevent the driver malfunction. It is needed to take
adequate measures because signal lines are very likely to be a ected by the noise.
For the noise that is emitted from the driver, take measures to suppress it.
Measures against electrical noise
There are the following three methods mainly to take measures against the electrical noise.
Noise suppression
When relays or electromagnetic switches are used together with the system, use noise lters and CR circuits to
suppress surges generated by them.
Use an accessory cable when extending a wiring distance between the motor and driver. This is e ective in
suppressing the electrical noise emitted from the motor.
Cover the driver by a metal plate such as aluminum. This is e ective in shielding the electrical noise emitted from
the driver.
Prevention of noise propagation
Connect a noise lter in the power supply cable of driver.
Place the power lines, such as the motor and power supply cables, keeping a distance of 200 mm (7.87 in.) or more
from the signal lines, and also do not bundle them or wire them in parallel. If the power cables and signal cables
have to cross, cross them at a right angle.
Use shielded twisted pair cables for power lines and signal lines.
Keep cables as short as possible without coiling and bundling extra lengths.
When grounding PE terminals of multiple drivers to a grounding point, it becomes more e ective to block the
electrical noise since impedance on the grounding point is decreased. However, ground them so that a potential
di erence does not occur among the grounding points. An accessory driver cable including with a ground wire is
available.
To ground a shielded cable, use a metal cable clamp that will maintain
contact with the entire circumference of the cable. Ground the cable
clamp near the product.
Suppression of e ect by noise propagation
Loop the noise propagated cable around a ferrite core. Doing so will prevent the propagated noise invades into
the driver or emits from the driver. The frequency band in which an e ec t by the ferrite core can be seen is
generally 1 MHz or more. Check the frequency characteristics of the ferrite core used. To increase the e ect of noise
attenuation by the ferrite core, loop the cable a lot.
Use the line driver type, which is less likely to be a ected by electrical noise, for the output circuit of pulse signals.
When the pulse signal of the controller is the open collector type, use an accessory pulse signal converter for noise
immunity.
Shielded cable
Connection
Cable clamp
Noise suppression parts
Noise lter
Connect the following noise lter (or equivalent) to the power line. Doing so will prevent the propagated noise
through the power line. Install the noise lter as close to the driver as possible.

SOSHIN ELECTRIC CO.,LTDHF2010A-UPFHF3010C-SZA
Scha ner EMCFN2070-10-06FN3025HP-10-71
Use the AWG18 (0.75 mm
using a cable clamp etc. so that the cable does not come o the enclosure.
Place the input cable as far apart as possible from the output cable, and do not wire the cables in parallel. If the
input and output cable are placed at a close distance or if they are wired in parallel, the noise in the enclosure
a ects the power cable through stray capacitance, and the noise suppressing e ect will reduce.
Connect the ground terminal of the noise lter to the grounding point, using as thick and short a wire as possible.
When connecting a noise lter in an enclosure, wire the input cable of the noise lter as short as possible. Wiring in
long distance may reduce the noise suppressing e ect.

Driver cable
This cable is a shielded cable for good noise immunity to connect the driver and controller. The ground wires useful to
grounding are provided at both ends of the cable. The EMC measures are conducted using the Oriental Motor driver
cable.
Pulse signal converter for noise immunity
This is a noise lter for pulse signal lines. It eliminates the noise of the pulse signal and changes the pulse signal to the
line driver type.
Surge suppressor
This product is e ective to suppress the surge which occurs in a relay contact part. Connect it when using a relay or
electromagnetic switch. CR circuit for surge suppression and CR circuit module are provided.
7-11 Installing and wiring in compliance with EMC Directive
E ective measures must be taken against the EMI that the motor and driver may give to adjacent control-system
equipment, as well as the EMS of the motor and driver itself, in order to prevent a serious functional impediment in
the machinery. The use of the following installation and wiring methods will enable the motor and driver to be
compliant with the EMC directive. Refer to p.8 for the applicable standards.
Oriental Motor conducts EMC measurements on its motors and drivers in accordance with “Example of motor and
driver installation and wiring” on p.27.
The user is responsible for ensuring the machine's compliance with the EMC Directive, based on the installation and
wiring explained below.
Connecting the noise lter
In large electrically noisy environments, connect a noise lter. Refer to “Noise lter ” on p.25 for details.
Connecting the AC power line reactor
When inputting single-phase 240 V, insert a reactor (5 A, 5 mH) in the AC power line to ensure compliance with EN
61000-3-2.
Connecting the control power supply (24 VDC)
Use a control power supply (24 VDC) compliant with the EMC Directive.
Use a shielded cable for the wiring , and keep it as short as possible.
Refer to “Prevention of noise propagation” on p.25 for grounding the shielded cable.
Connecting the motor cable
Use an accessory extension cable when extending the wiring distance between the motor and driver.
Connecting the signal cable
Refer to “Prevention of noise propagation” on p.25.
How to ground
The cable used to ground the motor, driver and noise lter must be as thick and shor t as possible so that no
potential di erence is generated.
Choose a large, thick and uniformly conductive surface for the grounding point.
Be sure to ground the Protective Earth Terminal of the motor and driver. Refer to p.18 for grounding method.

8 Explanation of I/O signals
8-1 Input signals
The following input signals of the driver are photocoupler inputs. The signal state represents the "ON: Carrying
current" or "OFF: Not carrying current" state of the internal photocoupler rather than the voltage level of the signal.
CW [PLS] input, CCW [DIR] input
These signals are used when the motor is operated by inputting pulses.
These inputs serve as the CW and CCW inputs in the 2-pulse input mode, or PLS and DIR inputs in the 1-pulse input
mode. Set the pulse input mode of the driver according to the pulse output mode of the controller (pulse generator)
used with the driver. When inputting the pulse, check the PLS-RDY output is turned ON.

MEXE02
FREE input
When the FREE input is turned ON, the motor current will be cut o . When an electromagnetic brake motor is used,
the electromagnetic brake will be released. The motor output shaft can be rotated manually since the motor holding
torque is lost.
Do not turn the FREE input ON when driving a vertical load. Since the motor loses its holding torque,
the load may drop.
STOP input
When the STOP input is turned ON, the motor will stop. When resuming the operation, input the operation start signal
or pulse to the driver after turning the STOP input OFF.
When the motor was stopped by the STOP input while the motor is operated by inputting pulses, be
sure to turn the pulse input OFF. If the STOP input is turned OFF while inputting pulses, the motor
may suddenly start rotating.
If the STOP input is turned ON while the motor is operated by inputting pulses, the driver is not
allowed to receive the pulse input.
ALM-RST input
If the ALM-RST input is turned from OFF to ON while an alarm is generated, the alarm will be reset. (The alarm will be
reset at the ON edge of the ALM-RST input.) Before resetting an alarm, be sure to remove the cause of the alarm to
ensure safety. Note that some alarms cannot be reset with the ALM-RST input.
When the motor is operated by inputting pulses, turn the pulse input OFF before resetting the alarm.
FW-JOG input, RV-JOG input
These signals are used to start JOG operation.
The motor continuously operates in the forward direction when turning the FW-JOG input ON, and the motor
continuously operates in the reverse direction when turning the RV-JOG input ON. If the signal having inputted is
turned OFF, the motor will stop.

Explanation of I/O signals
8-2 Output signals
The driver outputs signals in the photocoupler/open-collector output mode or line driver output mode. The signal
state represents the "ON: Carrying current" or "OFF: Not carrying current" state of the internal photocoupler rather
than the voltage level of the signal.
HOME-END output
When the home position is set or when high-speed return-to-home operation is complete, the HOME-END output
turns ON.
IN-POS output
After completion of positioning operation, when the motor was converged in a position of the “IN-POS positioning
completion signal range” parameter against the command position, the IN-POS output is turned ON.

PLS-RDY output
This signal is used when the motor is operated by inputting pulses.
When the driver is ready to execute operation by inputting pulses, the PLS-RDY output turns ON. Input the pulse to
the driver after the PLS-RDY output was turned ON.
READY output
When the driver is ready to execute operation, the READY output turns ON. Input the operation start signal to the
driver after the READY output was turned ON.
MOVE output
The MOVE output turns ON while the motor is operating.
ALM-B output
When an alarm generates, the ALM-B output will turn OFF, and the motor will stop. At the same time, the PWR/ALM
LED on the driver will blink in red. The ALM-B output is normally closed.
ASG output, BSG output
The ASG output is used to output pulses according to motor operation. The motor position can be monitored by
counting the ASG output pulses. The number of output pulses per motor revolution varies depending on the
resolution e ective when turning the power on.
The BSG output has a 90° phase di erence with respect to the ASG output. The motor rotation direction can be
determined by detecting the BSG output level at the rise of the ASG output.

Base current rate
Set the base current rate (%) for the operating current and standstill current using the current setting switch
(CURRENT). If the load is small and there is an ample allowance for torque, motor temperature rise can be suppressed
by setting a lower base current rate.
The actual operating current and standstill current are as follows.
Operating current: Maximum output current × Base current rate
Standstill current: Maximum output current × Base current rate × 0.5
The dial settings and corresponding base current rates are listed below.

Excessively low operating current or standstill current may cause a problem in starting the motor or
holding the load in position. Set a suitable current for your application.
The motor torque is proportional to the current. If the CURRENT switch is set to "7" (50%) while the
operating torque is set to 100% (maximum output current), only 50% of the torque is output.

Command lter
The motor response to input pulses can be adjusted using the command lter setting switch (FIL).
When setting a higher value for the command lter, lower vibration at low speed operation or smoother operation at
starting/stopping of the motor can be achieved. However, if this setting is too high, synchronization performance is
decreased. Set a suitable value based on the load or application.

11 Power removal function
(ETO function: External Torque O )
The power removable function (ETO function: External Torque O function) is the one that stops supplying the power
to the motor forcibly to put the motor into a non-excitation state if the HWTO input of the CN1 is shut o . This
function, which is di erent from the FREE input, shuts o the power supply to the motor directly on the circuit.
It can be used for the purpose of preventing dangerous movements of the moving part when maintenance of the
equipment is performed.
Related I/O signals are the HWTO input and EDM output.
Be sure to check the motor is in a standstill state before executing the ETO function. If the ETO
function is executed while the motor is operated, it may cause damage to the motor, driver, or
equipment.

11-5 To use this product safely
When the ETO function is used, be sure to conduct a risk assessment of equipment in advance to
satisfy the safety requirements of the entire system.
The ETO function is designed based on the assumption that the motor is in a standstill state. Do not
execute the ETO function while the motor is rotating.
Even if the ETO function is activated, the following potential risks can be estimated. Be sure to con rm
the safety by conducting a risk assessment.
The motor output shaft may be rotated by an external force. If the motor output shaft is kept in place, install an
external brake mechanism or equivalent. Do not use the brake mechanism of the electromagnetic brake motor for
braking the motor rotation.
If the ETO function is activated, the driver stops supplying the power to the motor. However, the input power to
the driver is not shut o , and the driver is not electrically isolated. Before performing maintenance or inspection,
always turn o the driver power, and check the voltage with a circuit tester after the CHARGE LED is turned o .
The EDM output is not an output signal to ensure the safety. Do not use the EDM output for any other
purpose except for monitoring a failure.

Inspection
12 Inspection
It is recommended that periodic inspections be conducted for the items listed below after each operation of the
motor. If an abnormal condition is noted, discontinue any use and contact your nearest Oriental Motor sales o ce.
During inspection
Are the openings in the driver blocked?
Are any of the mounting screws or connection parts of the driver loose?
Is there attachment of dust, etc., on the driver?
Are there any strange smells or appearances within the driver?
The driver uses semiconductor elements, so be extremely careful when handling them. Static
electricity may damage the driver.

14 Troubleshooting
During motor operation, the motor or driver may fail to function properly due to an improper setting or wiring. When
the motor cannot be operated correctly, refer to the contents provided in this section and take appropriate action. If
the problem persists, contact your nearest Oriental Motor sales office.
This chapter describes problems that may occur during operation in addition to the initial settings.
PhenomenonPossible causeRemedial action
The motor is not excited.
The motor output shaft can
be moved by hand.
The motor does not operate.
The motor does not rotate
although the READY LED is lit.
(only for pulse-input type)
The motor rotates in the
direction opposite to the
speci ed direction.
The gear output shaft rotates in
the direction opposite to the
motor.
Motor operation is unstable.
Motor vibration is too great.Load is too small.
The electromagnetic brake
does not release.
Refer to the AZ Series Function Edition for these contents.
Connection error in the motor
cable.
The FREE input is turned ON.Turn the FREE input OFF.
An electromagnetic brake motor is
used and the electromagnetic
brake is in the holding state.
The STOP input is turned ON.Turn the STOP input OFF.
The position (distance) is not set in
the operation data while
positioning operation.
The FW-JOG input and RV-JOG
input are turned ON simultaneously
in the JOG operation.
Signals are not connected
properly.
Multiple signals have been input
simultaneously.
The "motor rotation direction"
parameter is set wrong.
A gear that rotates in the direction
opposite to the motor shaft is used.
Connection error in the motor or
power supply.
The base current rate setting is too
low.
The power is not supplied to the
electromagnetic brake.
Check the connections between the driver and motor.
Check the connections between electromagnetic
brake and driver.
Check the operation data.
After turning both the FW-JOG input and RV-JOG input
OFF, turn either one of them ON.
Wire signals correctly.
Check if the signal line is disconnected.
Check if the wrong signal is input.
Check the setting of the "motor rotation direction"
parameter.
With TS geared motor, the gear output shaft rotates
in the direction opposite to the motor when the gear
ratio is 20 or 30.
With Harmonic geared motors, the gear output shaft
always rotates in the direction opposite to the motor.
Check the connections between the driver, motor and
power supply.
Return the CURRENT switch to its initial setting and
check. If the current is too low, the motor torque will
also be too low and operation will be unstable.
Built-in controller type, pulse input type with RS-485
communication interface;
Lower the current using the "Base current"
parameter. Vibration will increase if the motor’s
output torque is too large for the load.
Pulse input type;
Lower the current using the CURRENT switch.
Vibration will increase if the motor’s output torque is
too large for the load.
Check the connection of the electromagnetic brake.
