8 ZERO POINT RETURN CONTROL
Restrictions
(1) Always limit the servomotor torque after the "
Pr.49 Creep speed" is reached.
If the torque is not limited, the servomotor may fail when the machine presses
against the stopper. (Refer to section "12.4.2 Torque limit function".)
(2) Use an external input signal as the zero point signal.
(3) The zero point retry function cannot be used in "stopper stop method 3)".
Precautions during operation
(1) If the zero point signal is input before the workpiece stops at the stopper, the
workpiece will stop at that position, and that position will become the zero
point.
At this time, an error will not occur.

(2) If the restart command is turned ON after machine zero point return is stopped
upon a stop signal, an error “zero point return restart not possible” (error code:
209) occurs.
