Automatic Servo OFF Function
With automatic servo OFF function, the servo turns OFF automatically after a certain period of time once (delay time) positioning is completed.
Conduct the next movement command input and the servo should turn on automatically and the positioning operation should be executed.
Since holding current does not flow during the stop, power consumption can be reduced.
When it is necessary to have the pressing operation performed, do not set up Automatic Servo OFF Function.
Once ST Signal turns off after the pressing completed, Automatic Servo OFF Function should be activated and the servo gets turned off.

Caution
- Changing parameters only should not enable the changes made.
- Conduct reboot of the power or software reset after a change is made.
After ELECYLINDER is started up, the parameter changes should become enable. - Do not attempt to turn the power off during the setting transfer.
Doing so may damage the controller. - Do not use Automatic servo OFF with push-motion operation. When the pressing operation is conducted, it should be effective only when the pressing is missed (operation complete without touching subject = same condition as completion when positioning).
- There is no holding torque during Automatic servo OFF. The actuator will move if external force is applied. Take extra care when setting. Pay attention to interference and safety when setting up.
- Automatic servo OFF does not function if operating in teaching mode with PC software.
