CAUTION

If an error occurs, remove the cause, secure the safety and then resume operation after alarm release.

The unit may suddenly resume operation after a power failure is restored, so do not go near the machine. (Design the machine so that personal safety can be ensured even if the machine restarts suddenly.)

(8) Maintenance, inspection and part replacement

CAUTION

Perform the daily and periodic inspections according to the instruction manual.

Perform maintenance and inspection after backing up the program and parameters for the Motion controller and servo amplifier.

Do not place fingers or hands in the clearance when opening or closing any opening.

Periodically replace consumable parts such as batteries according to the instruction manual.

Do not touch the lead sections such as ICs or the connector contacts.

Do not place the Motion controller or servo amplifier on metal that may cause a power leakage or wood, plastic or vinyl that may cause static electricity buildup.

Do not perform a megger test (insulation resistance measurement) during inspection.

When replacing the Motion controller or servo amplifier, always set the new module settings correctly.

When the Motion controller or absolute value motor has been replaced, carry out a home position return operation using one of the following methods, otherwise position displacement could occur.

1)After writing the servo data to the Motion controller using programming software, switch on the power again, then perform a home position return operation.

2)Using the backup function of the programming software, load the data backed up before

replacement.

After maintenance and inspections are completed, confirm that the position detection of the absolute position detector function is correct.

Do not short circuit, charge, overheat, incinerate or disassemble the batteries.

The electrolytic capacitor will generate gas during a fault, so do not place your face near the Motion controller or servo amplifier.

The electrolytic capacitor and fan will deteriorate. Periodically replace these to prevent secondary damage from faults. Replacements can be made by our sales representative.
