8.2 Drive Mode Switch
The drive modes of the D/A converter module are the normal mode, trigger output mode, and synchronous
communication mode.
The following table lists the type and the operation of the mode.
The drive mode can be selected by setting Mode switch (address: 0000
H
). Note that the synchronous communication
mode can be used only when the following conditions are met. If the conditions are met, the D/A converter module
operates in the synchronous communication mode.
• Mode switch (address: 0000
H
) is set to Automatical judgment mode (9
H
).
• The D/A converter module is connected to the simple motion module with a serial number (first five digits) of
"15092" or later.
(1) Setting procedure
1. Set "Parameter write" for "Method selection".
"CC IE Field Configuration" window Select a D/A converter module in "List of stations". [CC
IE Field Configuration] [Online] [Parameter Processing of Slave Station]
2. Set "Mode switch" to "0: Normal mode", "1: Trigger output mode", or "9: Automatical judgment
mode".
The following table lists the setting value of "Mode switch" and the drive mode.
*1 The drive mode varies depending on the module of the master station as shown below.
3. Click the button to write the parameter to the D/A converter module.
Type Operation
Normal mode The D/A conversion is performed based on the internal clock of the D/A converter module.
Trigger output mode The D/A conversion is performed by turning on Trigger output request (RY19).
Synchronous communication
mode
The D/A conversion is performed synchronized with the operation cycle of a simple motion module.
Setting value of "Mode
switch"
Drive mode
"0: Normal mode" The D/A converter module operates in the normal mode.
"1: Trigger output mode" The D/A converter module operates in the trigger output mode.
"9: Automatical judgment mode"
The drive mode is automatically set according to the type of the module that operates as the master
station of the D/A converter module.
