7. Setting Data Entry
In order to move the electric actuator to a specific position, it is necessary to setup the patterns of
operations with the controller setting software or the teaching box. This setup data input by the
controller setting software or teaching box will be recorded in the memory of the controller.
For the controller setting software and the teaching box, there are two available modes. The appropriate
mode can be selected depending on the purpose.
● Easy mode
In Easy mode, the electric actuator can be started by entering only a limited number of settings
with the controller setting software and the teaching box.
The combination of settings you need to set up will change depending on the type of the electric
actuator. (combination of data can be selected.)
● Normal mode
In Normal mode, a more detailed setup can be made (conditions for the electric actuator and
controller, etc.) than in Easy mode.
You can change three kinds of setting data, "Step data", "Basic parameter" and "Return to origin
parameter" in this mode.

8.3 Pushing operation
The pushing operation is active when a Value greater than "1" is set in the Step data "pushing force".
Similar to the positioning operation, the electric actuator moves according to the settings of "Position"
and "Speed" in the step data and then, when it reaches to the target position, it starts the pushing
process.
The electric actuator pushes the load with the force no more than the maximum force set in the "Pushing
force" of the step data.
(1) Pushing operation is successfully performed
During the pushing operation, if the pushing force is kept higher than the value specified by "Trigger
LV" of the step data for a certain time, the INP output will be turned ON. Even after this completion of
pushing operation, the electric actuator keeps generating the force setup in the step data.

(3) Movement of the work piece after the completion of the pushing process
1) Movement of the work piece in the pushing direction.
After completion of the pushing operation, if the reaction force from the work piece becomes smaller,
the electric actuator may move with a force smaller than that specified in the "TriggerLV" of the step
data.
In such case, the INP output will be turned OFF and the electric actuator moves within the
positioning range according to the balance of the force.
If the pushing force is kept higher than the value specified by "Trigger LV" of the step data for a
certain time again, the INP output will be reactivated.

2) Movement of the work piece in the direction opposite to the pushing direction
(The electric actuator is pushed back since the reaction force from the work piece is too large.)
After completion of the pushing operation, if the reaction force from the work piece becomes larger,
the electric actuator may be pushed back. In such case, while the INP output is kept be ON, the
electric actuator will be pushed back to the point where the reaction force and the electric actuator
pushing force are balanced (pushed back toward the target position). If the electric actuator is
pushed back over the target position, the alarm (ORIG ALM) will be activated.

10. Start up procedure for battery-less absolute encoder
10.1 Procedure for start up
Procedure for start up of the battery-less absolute encoder for every occasion when the power is applied.
10.1.1 When power is supplied for the first time (Refer to 10.2 for details)
In the following cases, Alarm No.10-153 "Absolute encoder ID does not match controller data" is generated
after the power is applied, so perform the return to origin operation after resetting the alarm.
In addition, "When power is supplied for the first time" indicates the following cases.
• When connecting the electric actuator and turning on the power for the first time after purchase.
• When the actuator or motor has been replaced.
• When replacing the controller.
If the electric actuator and controller have been purchased as a set part number, the alarm may not be
generated by the customer because the alarm No. 01-153 "Absolute encoder ID does not match controller
data" is reset at the factory.
(If multiple units are purchased with the same set part number, alarm No. 01-153 "Absolute encoder ID
does not match controller data" will occur depending on the combination of the connected electric actuator
and controller.)
10.1.2 When the power is supplied again (Refer to 10.3 for details)
10.1.3 Alarm (group E) is cleared by a cut to the power supply (Refer to 10.4 for details).

(3) "Measures against drops" means preventing a work piece from dropping due to its weight
when the product operation is stopped and the power supply is turned off.
(4) Do not apply an impact load or strong vibration while the lock is activated.
If an external impact load or strong vibration is applied to the product, the lock will lose it’s holding
force and damage to the sliding part of the lock or reduced lifetime can result. The same situations
will happen when the lock slips due to a force over the thurst of the product, as this accelerates the
wear to the lock.
(5) Do not apply liquid or oil and grease to the lock or its surrounding.
When liquid or oil and grease is applied to the sliding part of the lock, its holding force will reduce
significantly.
(6) Take measures against drops and check that safety is assured before mounting, adjustment
and inspection of the product.
If the lock is released with the product mounted vertically, a work piece can drop due to its weight.
- 67 -
(7) When the electric actuator is operated manually (when SVRE output signal is off), supply 24
VDC to the [LK RLS] terminal of the power supply connector.
If the product is operated without releasing the lock, wearing of the lock sliding surface will be
accelerated, causing reduction in the holding force and the life of the locking mechanism.
(8) Do not supply 24 VDC power supply constantly to the [LK RLS (Lock release)] terminal.
Stop supplying 24 VDC power supply to the [LK RLS (Lock release)] terminal during normal
operation. If power is supplied to the [LK RLS] terminal continuously, the lock will be released, and
work pieces may be dropped at stop (EMG).
/Refer to the operation manual of LEC (controller) for details of wiring.
Warning
(1) Be sure to apply the specified voltage.
Otherwise, a malfunction and breakage of the controller may be caused.

heavy object on the cables.
It may cause an electric shock, fire, or breaking of wire.
(5) Do not connect power cable or high-voltage cable in the same wiring route as the unit.
The wires to the controller or its peripheral devices can be interrupted with noise or induced surge
voltage from power lines or high-voltage lines and malfunction could be caused.
Separate the wiring of the controller and its peripheral device from that of power line and high
voltage line.
Warning
(1) Use a power supply that has low noise between lines and between power and ground.
In cases where noise is high, an isolation transformer should be used.
(2) The power supplys should be separated between the controller power and the I/O signal
power and both of them do not use the power supply of "inrush current restraining type".
If the power supply is "inrush current restraining type", a voltage drop may be caused during the
acceleration of the electric actuator.
(3) To prevent surges from lightning, an appropriate measure should be taken. Ground the
surge absorber for lightning separately from the grounding of the controller and its
peripheral devices.
15.6 Ground

Air cylinder installation with an auto switch is forbidden in the shaded area.
- 71 -
(2) Check whether there are any loose connections between the controller and actuator.
If contact failure occurs with the motor powerwiring, the motor power will be insufficient, which reduces
the holding force.
Because of this, the actuator moving part will fall downward in a vertical operation.
(In this operation, the lock function of the actuator with lock does not work).
The surge voltage generated by contact failure may damage the controller.
(3) The ambient temperature of the controller should be lower than 55℃ depending on the operating
conditions of the actuator.
For the LEY40 and LEYG40 series, if the vertical transfer load is greater than the weight listed below, the
controller must be used at an ambient temperature of 40oC or less. Otherwise, damage may occur due to
higher temperature of the controller.

Cution
(1) Supply power when the actuator is stationary.
The controller acquires the absolute position data from the absolute encoder when power is applied.
Therefore, if the power is applied to the controller when the actuator is moving with an external force, the
controller fails to acquire the absolute position data, which generates an alarm.
(2) When the controller is used for the first time, perform the offset adjustment.
Alarm "Absolute encoder ID Alarm error (code: 1-153)" will be generated when power is applied to the
controller for the first time and/or when the actuator is replaced, therefore reset the alarm.
(Resetting the alarm registers the absolute encoder specific ID No. in the controller)
Turn the servo ON after resetting the alarm. Conducting a Return to Origin operation allows the use of
the controller.
(3) When a blank controller and actuator absolute encoder with battery are used, write the parameter
for the actuator to the absolute encoder with battery before use.
although the actuator type is identical, the actuator parameter in which the encoder and motor
specifications are not identical are written, noise or vibration occurs during servo ON or operation.
If the parameter for the actuator with different specification is written, re-write the parameter for the
actuator with the battery-less absolute encoder using JXC-BCW.
Refer to the Operation Manual of the controller and actuator for precautions.
