Basic Control Mode
The corresponding external encoders for each output type are given in the following table.
*1.  These are the directions in which the Servo Drive counts the pulses from a 90°phase difference output 
type external encoder.
*2. These are the feedback speeds from the external encoder at which Servo Drive can respond.
Check the external encoder operation manual for its maximum output frequency.
For example, the maximum speed when an external encoder with a resolution of 0.01 μm is used for 
the serial communication type is 0.01 μm × (400 × 10
6
) pps = 4.00 m/s.
An overspeed error protection is generated, however, if the motor shaft rotation speed exceeds the 
maximum speed.
Precautions for Correct Use
 For the external encoder connection direction, set the rotation direction so that count-up occurs
when the motor shaft is rotating counterclockwise, and count-down occurs when the motor shaft
is rotating clockwise. If the connection direction cannot be selected due to installation conditions,
etc., the count direction can be reversed using External Feedback Pulse Direction Switching
(Pn326).
 Take note that if Pn000 = 1, the encoder count direction becomes opposite to the count direction
used for monitoring the total external encoder feedback pulses, etc.
 If Pn000 = 0, the count direction matches the count direction for monitoring.
 Even when the speed command is within the Drive’s speed command range, an acceleration error
will occur if the speed command exceeds the maximum speed of motor shaft rotation.
 To confirm that the installation direction is correct, use the front-panel monitor or the CX-Drive
monitor function to check the counting direction of the total external encoder feedback pulses and
the total encoder feedback pulses. If the counting directions are the same, the connections are
correct.
