1.1.3 Mechanism of positioning control

MELSEC-Q

Positioning control using the QD75 is carried out with "pulse signals". (The QD75 is a module that generates pulses). In the positioning system using the QD75, various software and devices are used for the following roles. The QD75 realizes complicated positioning control when it reads in various signals, parameters and data and is controlled with the PLC CPU.

Creates control order and conditions as a sequence program.

GX Developer

Stores the created program.

The QD75 outputs the start signal and stop signal following the stored program.

QD75 errors, etc., are detected.

PLC CPU

Outputs signals such as the start

signal, stop signal, limit signal and control changeover signal to the QD75.

GX Configurator -QP

Sets the parameters and positioning data for control.

Outputs the start command for

JOG operation, etc., during test operation with the test mode.

Monitors the positioning operation.

QD75 positioning module

Servo amplifier

Motor

External signal Issues commands by

transmitting pulses.

Manual pulse generator

Stores the parameter and data.

Outputs pulses to the servo according to the instructions from the PLC CPU, GX Configurator-QP, external signals and manual pulse generator.

Receives pulse commands from QD75, and drives the motor.

Outputs the drive unit READY signal and zero signal to the QD75.

Carries out the actual work according to commands from the servo.
