Arbitrary pulse
Outputs the pulse signal which is equally divided single rotation when setting the
pulse number at the arbitrary pulse selection.
System ready
If VARICAM and ABSOCODER operate normally during selecting RUN mode, the
system ready signal is output.
Use this signal as the interlock signal.
○ ○ ○
Timing pulse
Outputs a pulse signal which is equally divided single rotation of the machine
(ABSOCODER).
The pulse number is selectable from 60, 180, or 360 per revolution.

Motion detection
Outputs ON/OFF signal according to rotation speed setting values.
Current position
value(BCD)
The current position value for the display is output by BCD 3-digit + 0.5 degree signal.

Current position
value(gray code
The current position
value for the display is output by gray codes which are divided by
720.
Outputs the shaft rotation speed of ABSOCODER by binary codes.
Latch pulse This is updating timing signal of the current position value outputs. ○ ○
Program No. The currently selected program No. is output. ○ ○
Input
The switch output will operate when this input is turned ON. ○ ○ ○
Error cancel Cancels an error when this input is turned ON. ○ ○ ○
Program No. Inputs the program No. by binary codes. ○ ○
Current position
HOLD
Uses this function when the current position value (speed) output is read by the
programmable controller.
Stops updating the current position value (speed) output when this signal is turned
