Software Setup and Operation
36 Clear All Programmable Outputs
When the line assigned to this function is activated, this function will clear (set to Off) all
programmable output lines. To clear individual programmable output lines, see “Output
Functions” on page 102.
37 Feed Sensor (1)
Defines which input line will be used for Feed Sensor (1) in Feed Sensor Indexes. This is an
edge sensitive function. It must be taken from low level to high level to be recognized.
39 Home (1) Initiate
Executes Home Cycle in Home (1).
40 Home Sensor (1)
Defines which input line will be used for Home Sensor #1.
41 Index Direction
When you assign this function to an input line, an additional question will appear in each
index setup screen asking “Use Index Direction Input - No”. If you answer “Yes”, and
activate the input line assigned to this function, the index you initiate will run in the opposite
direction to that in the Index Setup Screen. You must activate the input line assigned to this
function BEFORE you initiate the index.
42 Torque Jog
This does not apply to serial jog velocity. This function enables Torque Jog when you
simultaneously activate the input line assigned to this function and a Jog, Jog + or a Jog -. The
commanded torque used for Torque Jog is equal to the speed set for Fast Jog divided by the
maximum motor speed, times the drive peak torque rating. For example: If Fast Jog Velocity
is set at 1000 RPM on an FX-340 and Torque Jog was enabled, the torque produced would be
equal to:
(1000 RPM/3000 RPM)(80 lb-in), or (26.67 lb-in)
Failure to follow safe installation guidelines can cause death or serious injury. If there is
no resistance to the motor shaft when Torque Jog is enabled, the motor will immediately
go to its maximum speed.
