15. COMMUNICATION FUNCTION
15.5.8 Test operation mode
POINT
The test operation mode is used to confirm operation. Do not use it f or actual
operation.
If communication stops for longer than 0.5s during test operation, the servo
amplifier decelerates to a stop, resulting in servo loc k. To prevent this,
continue communication all the time, e.g. monitor the status display.
Even during operation, the servo amplifier can be put in the test operation
mode.
In this case, as soon as the test operation mode is s elected, the base circuit
is shut off, coasting the servo amplifier.
