Precautions for use
6 Precautions for use
This section covers limitations and requirements the user should consider when using the product.
•Always use the cable (supplied or accessory) to connect the motor and driver.
Be sure to use the cable (supplied or accessory) to connect the motor and driver.
In the following condition, an appropriate accessory cable must be purchased separately. Refer to p.208 for details.
•If a flexible cable is to be used.
•I
f a cable of 3 m (9.8 ft.) or longer is to be used.
•If a motor and driver package without a cable was purchased.
•Perform the insulation resistance test or dielectric strength test separately on the motor and the
driver.
Performing the insulation resistance test or dielectric strength test with the motor and driver connected may result in
damage to the product.
•Do not apply a radial load and axial load in excess of the specified permissible limit
Operating the motor under an excessive radial load or axial load may damage the motor bearings (ball bearings). Be
sure to operate the motor within the specified permissible limit of radial load and axial load. Refer to p.28 for details.
•Use the motor in conditions where its surface temperature will not exceed 100 °C (212 °F).
The driver has an overheat protection function, but the motor has no such feature. The motor surface temperature may
exceed 100 °C (212 °F) under certain conditions (ambient temperature, operating speed, duty cycle, etc.). To prevent
the motor bearings (ball bearings) from reaching its usable life quickly, use the motor in conditions where the surface
temperature will not exceed 100 °C (212 °F).
Use the gea
prevent deterioration of grease and parts in the gear case.
If the motor is to be operated continuously, install the motor in a location where heat dissipation capacity equivalent
to a level achieved with a heat sink [made of aluminum, 250×250×6 mm (9.84×9.84×0.24 in.)] is ensured.
red type motor in a condition where the gear case temperature does not ex
ceed 70 °C (158 °F), in order to
•Holding torque at standstill
The motor holding torque is reduced by the current cutback function of the driver at motor standstill. When selecting
a motor for your application, consider the fact that the holding torque will be reduced at motor standstill.
•Do not use the electromagnetic brake to reduce speed or as a safety brake.
Do not use the electromagnetic brake as a means to decelerate and stop the motor. The brake hub of the
electromagnetic brake will wear significantly and the braking force will drop.
Since the power off activated type electromagnetic brake is equipped, it helps maintain the position of the load when
the power is cut off, but this brake cannot securely hold the load in place. Accordingly, do not use the electromagnetic
brake as a safety brake.
To use the electromagnetic brake to ho
ld the load in place, do so after the motor has stopped.
•Double shaft type motor
Do not apply load torque, radial load or axial load to the output shaft on the opposite side of the motor output shaft.
•Preventing electrical noise
See "1.7 Installing and wiring in compliance with EMC Directive" on p.30 for measures with regard to noise.
•Peak torque of geared type motor
Always operate the geared type motor under a load not exceeding the peak torque. If the load exceeds the peak torque,
the gear will be damaged.
•Grease of geared type motor
On rare occasions, a small amount of grease may ooze out from the geared type motor. If there is concern over
possible environmental damage resulting from the leakage of grease, check for grease stains during regular
inspections. Alternatively, install an oil pan or other dev
leakage may lead to problems in the customer’s equipment or products.

•Do not perform push-motion operation with geared types.
Doing so may cause damage to the motor or gear part.
•Saving data to the non-volatile memory
Do not turn off the power supply while writing the data to the non-volatile memory and 5 seconds after the
completion of writing the data. Doing so may abort writing the data and cause a EEPROM error alarm to generate.
The non-volatile memory can be rewritten approximately 100,000 times.
•Motor excitation at power ON
The motor is excited when the power is on. If the motor is required to be in non-excitation status when turning on the
power, assign the C-ON input to the direct I/O or network I/O.
•Overvoltage alarm by regeneration energy
The overvoltage alarm will generate depending on the operating condition. When an alarm is generated, review the
operating conditions.
•Note on connecting a power supply whose positive terminal is grounded
The power supply connector (CN1), data edit connector (CN3) and RS-485 communication connector (CN6/CN7)
of the driver are not electrically 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 these equipment to
short, damaging both. Use the

•1000 m (3300 ft.) or lower above sea level
ree of ex
plosive atmosphere or toxic gas (such as sulfuric gas) or liquid
noise (from welders, pow
er machinery, etc.)
1.2 Installing the motor
The motor can be installed in any direction.
To allow for heat dissipation and prevent vibration, install the motor on a metal surface of sufficient strength.
When connecting a load to the motor, align the centers of the motor output shaft and load shaft.
Flexible couplings are available as accessories.
Note
Using a coupling
Align the centers of the motor output shaft and load shaft in a straight line.
Using a belt drive
Align the motor output shaft and load shaft in parallel with each other, and position both pulleys so that the line
connecting their centers is at a right angle to the shafts.
Using a gear drive
Align the motor output shaft and gear shaft in parallel with each other, and let the gears mesh at the center of the tooth
widths.
•When coupling the load to the motor, pay attention to the centering of the shafts, belt tension,
parallelism of the pulleys, and so on. Securely tighten the coupling and pulley set screws.
•Be careful not to damage the output shaft or bearings when installing a coupling or pulley to the
motor output shaft.
•Do not modify or machine the motor output shaft. Doing so may damage the bearings and
de
stroy
the motor.
•Do not apply strong force using hammer or other tools when removing the parallel key. Doing so
may damage the motor output shaft and bearings (ball bearings).
Installation
• Using a coupling• Using a belt drive• Using a gear drive
Using a parallel key (geared motor)
When connecting the load and gear output shaft with a key slot, secure the load using the key supplied with the gear
output shaft after machining the key slot on the load.

1.5 Installing the driver
Installation method
Mount the driver to a 35 mm (1.38 in.) width DIN rail.
When installing two or more drivers in parallel, it is possible to install them closely
in the horizontal direction.
Provide a minimum clearance of 50 mm (1.97 in.) in the vertical direction.
When installing three or more drivers closely, the heat generation of the inside drivers
become high. Install the less frequently used drivers toward the in
U
se the "overheat warning" parameter to check the inside temperature of the driver.
Note
•Install the driver in an enclosure whose pollution degree is 2
or better environment, or whose degree of protection is IP54
minimum.
•Do not install any equipment that generates a large amount of heat
or noise near the driver.
•Do not install the driver underneath the controller or other
equipment vulnerable to heat.
•If the ambient temperature of the driver exceeds 50 °C (122 °F),
improve the
ve
by using fans or creating spaces between the drivers.
•Be sure to install the driver vertically (vertical position).

1.7 Installing and wiring in compliance with EMC Directive
Effective 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 "8 CE Marking" o
riental Motor conducts EMC measurements on its motors and drivers in accordance with "Example of motor and
O
driver installation and wiring" on p.31. The user is responsible for ensuring the machine's compliance with the EMC
Directive, based on the installation and wiring explained below.
Connecting the power supply
Use a DC power supply compliant with the EMC Directive.
Use a shielded cable for wiring and wire/ground the pow
Refer to "Wiring the power supply cable and I/O signal cable" for how to ground the shielded cable.
Connecting noise lter for power supply line
•Connect a noise filter in the DC power supply input to prevent the noise generated in the driver from propagating
externally through the power supply line.
•When using a power supply transformer, be sure to connect a noise filter to the AC
transformer.
•For a noise filter, use HF2010A (SOSHIN ELECTRIC CO.,LTD), FN2070-10-06 (Schaffner EMC) or equivalent
product.
•Install the noise filter as close to the AC input terminal of DC power supply as possible. Use cable clamps and other
means to secure the AC input cables (AWG18: 0.75 mm
firmly to the surface of the enclosure.
•Connect the ground terminal of the noise filter to the grounding point, using as thick and short a wire as possible.
•Do not place the AC input cable parallel with the noise filter output cable. Parallel placement will reduce noise

Notes about installation and wiring
•Connect the motor, driver and other peripheral control equipment directly to the grounding point so as to prevent a
potential difference from developing between grounds.
•When relays or electromagnetic switches are used together with the system, use noise filters and CR circuits to
suppress surges generated by them.
•Keep cables as short as possible without coiling and bundling extra lengths.

3.6 General signals (R0 to R15)
R0 to R15 are general signals that enable control via RS-485 communication.
Using R0 to R15, I/O signals for the external device can be controlled by the master controller via the driver.
The direct I/O of the driver can be used as an I/O unit.
See the following example for setting of the general signals.
•When outputting the signals from the master controller to the external device
Assign the general signal R0 to the OUT0 output and NET-IN0.
When setting the NET-IN0 to 1, the OUT0 output turns ON. When setting the NET-IN0 to 0, the OUT0 output turns
OFF.
•When inputting the output of the external device to the master controller
Assign the general signal R1 to the IN7 input and NET-OUT15.
When turning the IN7 input ON by the external device, the NET-OUT15 becomes 1. When turning the IN7 input OFF,
the NET-OUT15 becomes 0. The logic level of the IN7 input can be set using "IN7 logic level setting" parameter.

Operation function; Push-motion operation
When the "operation function" is set to "push-motion," the motor performs an operation of continuously applying
pressure on the load when pressing against the load.
In push-motion operation, the motor performs constant speed operation at the operating speed of the selected
o
peration data No. but the acceleration/deceleration will not be applied.
The motor becomes "push-motion" status when pressing against the load, and the TLC output and READY output are
turned ON. The set current value of push-motion operation is applied to the motor current.
When the operation was completed with non-push-mo
output are turned ON. The set current of push-motion operation is applied to the motor current at standstill.
When the STOP input is turned ON, the motor stops, and the END output and READY output are turned ON.
The STOP current is applied to the motor current at standstill.
Note
•Regardless of resolution, the maximum speed of push-motion operation is 500 r/min. If the
push-motion operation is started by setting higher speed than 500 r/min, an operation data error
alarm will generate. For the driver which is before the specification change, the maximum speed
of push-motion operation is 30 r/min. Refer to p.6 for details.
•If push-motion operation is performed for long per
the push current, note that the driver may generate a large amount of heat.
•Do not perform push-motion operation with geared types. Doing so may cause damage to the

Return-to-home is an operation in which the reference point of positioning (mechanical home position) is detected
automatically. Return-to-home operation is performed to return to the home position from the current position when
the power supply is turned on or the positioning operation is completed.
Return-to-home operation can be performed in the following four modes:

•STOP action
When the STOP input is turned ON or STOP is commanded via
RS-485 communication while the motor is operating, the motor
will stop. The stopping mode is determined by the setting of the
“STOP input action” parameter.
For example, the operation when setting "STOP input action"
parameter to "deceleration stop" is shown in the figure to the
right.
•Hardware overtravel
Hardware overtravel is the function that limits the operation range
by installing the limit sensor (±LS) at the upper and lower limit
of the operation range. If the "hardware overtravel" parameter is
set to "enable", the motor can be stopped when detecting the limit
sensor.
The stopping mode is determined by the setting of “overtravel
action” parameter.
The operation example
when setting the "ove
parameter to "immediate stop" is shown in the figure to the right.
•Software overtravel
The software overtravel is a function that limits the range of
movement via software settings.
If the "software overtravel" parameter is set to "enable", the
motor can be stopped when exceeding the software limit. The
stopping mode is determined by the setting of “overtravel action”
parameter.
The operation example shown on the right applies when an

The parameters are saved in the RAM or non-volatile memory. The data saved in the RAM will be erased once the
power supply is turned off. On the other hand, the parameters saved in the non-volatile memory will be retained even
after the power supply is turned off.
When turning the driver power supply on, the parameters saved in the non-volatile memory will be sent to the RAM.
Then, the recalculat
When a parameter is changed, the timing to reflect the new value varies depending on the parameter. See the
following four types.

•Effective after turning the power ON again ..Executes the recalculation and setup after turning the 24 VDC power
Note
•The parameters are written in the RAM when writing via RS-485 communication.
•The non-volatile memory can be rewritten approximately 100,000 times.
