3.4.3 Using Zero-Clamp
1) The zero-clamp function is used for a system in which the host controller does not form a
position loop by speed reference input.
In other words, this function is used to cause the motor to stop and enter a servo locked
status when the input voltage of speed reference V-REF is not 0 V. When the zero-clamp
function is turned ON, an internal position loop is temporarily formed, causing the motor
to be clamped within one pulse. Even if the motor is forcibly rotated by external force, it
returns to the zero-clamp position.

2) Set the following memory switch so that input signal P-CON can be used to enable or
disable the zero-clamp function.

Zero-clamp Speed Control
This speed control allows the
zero-clamp function to be set when
the motor stops.
D A speed reference is input from
V-REF (1CN-3).
D P-CON
(1CN-15) is used to turn the
zero-clamp function ON or OFF.
