4.5 Precaution for absolute encoder
In the host controller, when detecting the absolute position of the machine even when the
power of the servo drive is turned off, you must use an absolute type servo motor and drive. If
you connect the power to the absolute type servo system, you can make a machine system that
can directly enable auto operation with additional position detection operation without the
difference between the absolute type drive and standard type drive is whether there is a back-
up battery.
4.5.1 Battery handling
The battery supplies the back-up power to store the position information of the “Absolute
encoder” even when the drive power is turned off.
