2) Check that the I/O type is the same as the control system being used. 1) Check that these match on actuator and driver:
- Actuator product number and the - Label indicating the actuator type that the controller is programmed to drive. ① Actuator
② I/O cable (LEC-CN5-※)
⑤ Power Supply Plug ③ Actuator Cable (LE-C※-※-※)
④ Controller LEC Series
The actuator and the controller are supplied as a dedicated/comptatible package.
Failure to match the compatibility of the actuator to the controller
can result in irreparable damage to the actuator system.
① Actuator
② I/O cable (LEC-CN5-※)
③ Actuator cable (LE-C※-※-※)
④ Controller
⑤ Power supply plug (usually inserted into socket CN1 of the controller when shipped)

① Connect the motor cable to CN2 and the encoder cable to CN3.
② Connect the PC or Teaching Box to CN4. (Note: The Teaching Box can only be used with the LECP6 stepper motor controller.)
④ Connect the power plug to a 24 VDC power supply (see details below). - The power supply and cables are supplied by the customer. - Check from the actuator specifications that the power supply output capacity is suitable to drive the actuator and controller.
OFF Lit ⑤ Check that the Teaching Box buzzer sounds
and the LED status is as indicated on the right. - If an alarm occurs please refer to the "Operation Manual LEC-OM00602" section "12. Alarm Detection".

Correct insertion of wires Wrong insertion of wires
Check that there are no bare wires outside the
wire entry. Make sure that a small
portion of the insulation is inserted into the wire entry to prevent bare
wires from shorting with adjacent cables

The current position is displayed at the bottom line of the display.
① Connect the PC
to the LEC. Start the ACTController
setting software.
② Select "Normal Mode"
When the communication is established the actuator type and stroke is displayed in the toolbar.
Note! Check that this matches with the actuator and controller being used
Disable the parallel I/O and enable the servo by changing from "Monitor Mode" to "Test Mode".
Open the "Teaching" window by selecting "View" and "Teaching" from the menubar.
The "Monitor Mode" toolbar will be changed to "Test Mode" to indicate
the currently active mode.
① Check that "JOG" is highlighted blue.
Confirm that the power can be safely turned ON to the motor and that the I/Os can be safely disabled.
Select "OK"
(The software will automatically disable the I/O's)
The "JOG" button will allow the actuator to be jogged
by using the "JOG" "<_" and "->" buttons at a speed set by the "Speed" indicator at the bottom.
The "DIRECT" button turns the power OFF from the motor so that the actuator
can be moved manually. The actuator "Position" is still monitored in realtime.
The current actuator position is displayed in realtime in the "Position" window.
The "Move" buttons will move the actuator in either direction in relative
steps displayed by the "Move distance" window. Adjustment of the relative
distance the actuator will move when pressing
the "Move" buttons.
Adjustment and indication of the speed the actuator will move at when jogging or
using the "Move" buttons.
The "<_" and "->" buttons will jog the actuator in either
direction at a speed set by the "Speed" indicator

The movement can be stopped by pressing the "Stop" button. A new movement command has to be given after a "Stop" command.
The new movement will start from the position the actuator
was stopped at.
③The actuator can now be jogged, or moved in relative steps from this window. ② Select "RTN ORIG"
to return the actuator to its origin.
The "Step Data" window will appear.
② Upload the current "Step Data" from the controller.
Step number 0 and 1 are preset at manufacture to move the actuator to the ends of the stroke with the maximum allowable speed, acceleration and deceleration. Each row indicates
a step number. (Range: 0-63)
These columns contain step data specifications and units for each step. ① Open the "Step Data" window by selecting
Disable the parallel I/O and enable the servo by changing from "Monitor Mode" to "Test Mode".
