Encoder rotation direction

switching

Encoder data can be set with a DIP switch to forward (CW) or reverse (CCW) direction.

Encoder origin designation

The present display angular

position can be set to 0

° (origin) by

pressing the ORIGIN Key on the

front panel.

The present display angular position can be set to 0

° (origin) by using the

origin input terminal or the ORIGIN Key on the front panel.

Note: All banks use the same origin.

Angle display switch

Converts the Absolute Encoder value display from 256 divisions/revolution to 360

°/revolution.

Rotation display monitor

Graphically displays the Encoder rotational angular position.

Teaching function

Sets the cam output ON/OFF angle based on actual machine (Encoder) operation.

Pulse output

Outputs a preset number of pulses per Encoder rotation. It also sets the pulse output start angle.

Switching the angle and

speed displays

Displays both the present angular position and the number of Encoder revolutions (speed) in Run Mode.

Switches back and forth between the main display showing the present angular position with the sub-display

showing the speed and the main display showing the speed with the sub-display showing the present angular

position.

Bank function

---

Enables the entire cam program to be changed at one time by switching

banks (0 to 7).

The bank that is running can be switched using the bank input terminal or the

BANK Key on the front panel.

Also enables programs to be copied between banks.

Advance angle compensation

(ADV) function

Automatically advances the ON/OFF angle of cam outputs in proportion to machine (encoder) speed to

compensate for the delay in timing of ON/OFF operation. ADV values can be set individually for 7 cam outputs.

Speed alarm output

A specified cam output can be used as an Encoder speed alarm output.

The function can output upper and lower limit speed alarms.

All protection function

Disables all key and switch operations in Run Mode to prevent incorrect or unauthorized operation.

Cam protection function

Prohibits program changes at the cam output level. Any cam numbers can be protected.

Step number limit

Limits the number of steps that can be set per cam output. Prohibits incorrect operations by adding to the

program.

Output prohibit

---

The start input can be turned OFF in Run or Test Mode to prohibit cam

output.

Note: Use this function carefully for the application because no cam outputs

are provided when the start input is turned OFF.

Support Software settings

---

Programs can be uploaded or downloaded easily by connecting a personal

computer to the Cam Positioner using a USB Cable (Recommended USB

Cables: ELECOM CO.Ltd. U2C-MF20BK) and the Support Software (H8PS-

SOFT-V1, sold separately).
