12. ABSOLUTE POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM
12 - 11
1) After the absolute position data is transmitted, RD turns on by ABSM-off. When RD is on, ABSM-
on is not received.
2) Even if SON is turned on before ABSM is turned on, the base circuit is not turned on until ABSM is
turned on.
If an alarm has occurred, ABSM is not received. ABSM allows data transmission even while a
warning is occurring.
3) If ABSM is turned off during the ABS transfer mode, the ABS transfer mode is interrupted and [AL.
E5 ABS time-out warning] occurs.
If SON is turned off, RES is turned on, and EM2 is turned off during the ABS transfer mode, [AL.
E5 ABS time-out warning] occurs.
4) Note that if ABSM is turned on for a purpose other than absolute position data transmission, the
output signals will be assigned the functions of absolute position data transmission.
5) ABSM is not accepted while the base circuit is on. For re-transferring, turn off SON signal and
keep the base circuit in the off state for 20 ms or longer.
(b) Detailed description of absolute position data transfer
If SON does not turn on within 1 s after ABSM off, [AL. EA ABS servo-on warning] will occur. But it will
not influence the transfer. SON on will cancel [AL. EA] automatically.
