Space-Saving and Low-Cost Multi-Axis Controller / Driver (Max. 4 Axes)
AZ Series Multi-Axis Drivers
A multi-axis driver that supports EtherCAT communication. Compatible with the CiA402 drive profile. It can be connected to the AZ Series DC input motors and electric actuators. 2-axes, 3-axes and 4-axes driver connections are available.
ESI File
An ESI file is provided so that EtherCAT-compatible products can be used more easily. For questions about connections to Omron PLCs, please contact OMRON Corporation. An EtherCAT connection guide is available.
Extended Functions with MEXE02 Data Setting Software
Monitoring Functions
You can monitor the status of all axes at once.
Waveform Monitoring
The operating status of the motor (such as command speed and feedback speed), can be checked by an oscilloscope-like image. This can be used for equipment start-up and adjustment.
Status Monitor
In addition to monitoring operating speed, motor driver temperature and load factor, you can also monitor total rotation amount from the start of use.
For each item, you can set up to output signals arbitrarily, so it is effective for efficient maintenance.
Alarm Monitoring
When an abnormality occurs, the details of the abnormality and the solution can be checked. Because the solution can be checked it is possible to respond to abnormalities quickly.
Multi-Monitoring Support
Multiple setting screens such as data setting, test driving, monitoring etc. can be opened simultaneously in separate screens and used. It is easy to start up and adjust the equipment.
Test Function
It is a function that allows you to operate the motor independently or check connection with the host system.
By utilizing it at the time of device start-up, it will shorten the time.
Remote Operation
Data setting software can be used to perform the home setting and also drive the motor. This can be used for teaching or test drive purposes.
I/O Test
The status of the I/O wired to the driver can be checked on a computer. This can be used for post-wiring I/O checks or I/O checks during operation.
Parameter Settings
You can set parameters directly without going through the network. Also, you can set each axis without replacing the cable.
