Roller lever switches are mounted to the X-axis for safety reasons, in order to limit the working space. This
prevents destruction of the X-axis. The roller lever switches deactivate the controller's safety circuit (safety
torque off).
An additional proximity sensor is mounted to the electromechanical drive, in order to be able to home the
axis via the switch lug.
Note
When mounting the 2-axis handling module with stepper motor, the danger exists that the module
could tip over. The module should be mounted by two persons.
The electromechanical drive is configured and the position records are set up with 3 positions using FCT
software. Travel to these positions is made possible by means of bit codes. Bit 0.0 is reserved for homing.
Teaching the positions in
The 2-axis handling module with stepper motor is controlled with FCT software. The steps required for
teach-in are described in chapter 11, "Commissioning".
