1. To prevent electric shock, note the following WARNING Before wiring or inspection, turn off the power and wait for 15 minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P+ and N- is safe with a voltage tester and others. Otherwise, an electric shock may occur.
Page 4
3. To prevent injury, note the following CAUTION Only the voltage specified in the Instruction Manual should be applied to each terminal. Otherwise, a burst, damage, etc. may occur. Connect cables to the correct terminals. Otherwise, a burst, damage, etc. may occur. Ensure that polarity (+/-) is correct.
Page 5
CAUTION When you disinfect or protect wooden packing from insects, take measures except by fumigation. Fumigating the servo amplifier or packing the servo amplifier with fumigated wooden packing can cause a malfunction of the servo amplifier due to halogen materials (such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine) which are contained in fumigant.
Page 6
(4) Usage CAUTION When it is assumed that a hazardous condition may occur due to a power failure or product malfunction, use a servo motor with an external brake to prevent the condition. Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the equipment. Before resetting an alarm, make sure that the run signal of the servo amplifier is off in order to prevent a sudden restart.

4. STARTUP (WIRING CHECK) 4.1 Power supply system wiring Before switching on the main circuit and control circuit power supplies, check the following items. (1) Power supply system wiring The power supplied to the power input terminals (L1, L2, L3, L11, and L21) of the servo amplifier should satisfy the defined specifications.
4. STARTUP (WIRING CHECK) (b) When you use a regenerative option for 5 kW or more servo amplifiers The lead wire of built-in regenerative resistor connected to P+ terminal and C terminal should not be connected. The regenerative option should be connected to P+ terminal and C terminal. A twisted cable should be used when wiring is over 5 m and under 10 m.

10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR 10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR When using the linear servo motor, read "Linear Servo Motor Instruction Manual" WARNING and "Linear Encoder Instruction Manual". The items in the following table are the same as those for MR-J4-_A(-RJ) or MR-J4-_B(-RJ) servo amplifier. For details of the items, refer to each chapter/section of the detailed explanation field.
10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR 10.1 Signals and wiring Any person who is involved in wiring should be fully competent to do the work. Before wiring, turn off the power and wait for 15 minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off.

10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR Connecting a linear servo motor of the wrong axis to the U, V, W, or CN2 may cause a malfunction. Do not modify the equipment. CAUTION The cables such as power wires deriving from the primary side cannot stand the long-term bending action.
10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR 10.2 Characteristics 10.2.1 Overload protection characteristics An electronic thermal is built in the servo amplifier to protect the linear servo motor, servo amplifier and linear servo motor power wires from overloads. [AL. 50 Overload 1] occurs if overload operation performed is above the electronic thermal protection curve shown in fig.
10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR 10.2.2 Power supply capacity and generated loss Table 10.1 indicates servo amplifiers' power supply capacities and losses generated under rated load. For thermal design of an enclosed type cabinet, use the values in the table in consideration for the worst operating conditions.
10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR 10.2.3 Dynamic brake characteristics POINT Do not use dynamic brake to stop in a normal operation as it is the function to stop in emergency. For a machine operating at the recommended load to motor mass ratio or less, the estimated number of usage times of the dynamic brake is 1000 times while the machine decelerates from the rated speed to a stop once in 10 minutes.
10. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR 10.2.4 Permissible load to motor mass ratio when the dynamic brake is used Use the dynamic brake under the load to motor mass ratio indicated in the following table. If the ratio is higher than this value, the dynamic brake may burn. If there is a possibility that the ratio may exceed the value, contact your local sales office.
