-32768～+32767
·When the upper limit (+32767)is exceeded in the
forward direction, the multiturn data is -32768
·When the lower limit (-32768)is exceeded
in the reverse direction, the multiturn data is
+32767.
The absolute position can be read by the MODBUS protocol. In the actual control, the MODBUS protocol can read the
initial position when the servomotor is stopped (S-OFF), then the real-time position during the servomotor is running can
be found from the number of PG divided output pulses.
4.4.1 Selecting an Absolute Encoder
An absolute encoder can also be used as an incremental encoder.
Parameter Meaning
Pn002 b.□0□□ Use the absolute encoder as an absolute encoder. (Factory setting)
b.□1□□ Use the absolute encoder as an incremental encoder.
·The back-up battery is not required when using the absolute encoder as an incremental encoder.
·After changing these parameters, turn OFF the main circuit and control power supplies and then turn them ON
again to enable the new settings.
