(1) 13-bit incremental encoder
For HIWIN AC servo motor with the 13-bit incremental encoder, simply selecting the purchased
motor model name, the program will automatically connect to encoder parameters suitable for this
motor, as shown in figure 5.2.2.1. For example, for the 9-th bit of motor model name being 5, the
program will automatically connect to the digital rotary encoder with the resolution being 10,000
counts/rev.
(2) 17-bit serial encoder
For HIWIN AC servo motor with the serial encoder, it does not need to set encoder parameters,
since they are already saved in the encoder, as shown in figure 5.2.2.1.1. For example, for the 9-th
bit of motor model name being 4 or 6, the program will automatically read encoder parameters and
show the resolution being 131,072 counts/rev. When using the 9-th bit of motor model name being 4
(with multi-turn absolute encoder), it also shows “Multiturn range” of this encoder. The multi-turn
range of HIWIN absolute encoder is -32,768 to 32,767.
