Fig. 8.17 Operation timing and processing time of high-speed zero point returns
Normal timing time Unit: [ms]
t1 t2 t3
5 to 15 0 to 3.5
The t1 timing time could be delayed by the following factors.
1) Operation state of other axes
2) Presence of intervention from peripheral device during start process
3) Details of positioning data to be started
Operating precautions
If the high-speed zero point return is started when the zero point return request
flag (RX(n+1)F, RX(n+4)F) is ON, error "zero point return request ON" (error code:
207) will occur.
