17.3 Scale measurement function
The scale measurement function transmits position information of a scale measurement encoder to the
controller by connecting the scale measurement encoder in semi closed loop control.
POINT
The scale measurement function is available for the servo amplifiers of software
version A8 or later.
When a linear encoder is used as a scale measurement encoder for this servo
amplifier, "Linear Encoder Instruction Manual" is necessary.
When the scale measurement function is used for MR-J4-_B_ servo amplifiers,
the following restrictions apply. However, these restrictions will not be applied for
MR-J4-_B_-RJ servo amplifiers.
A/B/Z-phase differential output type encoder cannot be used.
The scale measurement encoder and servo motor encoder are compatible
with only the two-wire type. The four-wire type scale measurement encoder
and servo motor encoder cannot be used.
When you use the HG-KR and HG-MR series for driving and scale
measurement encoder, the optional four-wire type encoder cables (MR-
EKCBL30M-L, MR-EKCBL30M-H, MR-EKCBL40M-H, and MR-EKCBL50M-H)
cannot be used. When an encoder cable of 30 m to 50 m is needed, fabricate
a two-wire type encoder cable according to app. 8.
The scale measurement function compatible servo amplifier can be used with
any of the following controllers.
Motion controller R_MTCPU/Q17_DSCPU
Simple motion module RD77MS/QD77MS_/LD77MS_
For settings and restrictions of controllers compatible with the scale
measurement function, refer to user's manuals for each controller.
