4. DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS
195
Example: If parameter No. 8516 = 16 and parameter No. 8517 = 1000,
the relationships between the Y signal and the high–speed position
switch number are as follows:
Y1000#0 ––– first high–speed position switch signal
Y1000#1 ––– second high–speed position switch signal
::
Y1000#7 ––– sixteenth high–speed position switch signal
It is impossible, for example, to assign Y1000#0 to the sixteenth
high–speed position switch and to skip Y1000#1 to assign Y1000#2
to the second high–speed position switch.
(
) If a nonexistent signal address is specified, the high–speed position
switch function is disabled.
NOTE
1 When high–speed position switches are to be used for both
paths in Power Mate i–D two–path control, change Y signal
output addresses for each path separately.
Example: If four high–speed position switches are used for
path 1, and other four high–speed position switches are
used for path 2
(Example of correct settings)
Parameters for path 1
Parameter No. 8516 = 4
Parameter No. 8516 = 1000 “Bits 0 to 3 of
Y1000 are used.”
Parameters for path 2
Parameter No. 8516 = 4
Parameter No. 8516 = 1001 “Bits 0 to 3 of Y1001
are used.”
(Example of incorrect settings)
The following settings are unusable.
Parameters for path 1
Parameter No. 8516 = 4
Parameter No. 8516 = 1000 “Bits 0 to 3 of Y1000
are used.”
Parameters for path 2
Parameter No. 8516 = 4
Parameter No. 8516 = 1000 <––“Bits 4 to 7 of Y1000
are used.”
2 Do not use any Y signal already used on the PMC ladder.
Otherwise, the machine may behave in an unexpected
manner.
3 When this parameter is set, the power must be turned off
before operation is continued.
