12. ABSOLUTE POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM
12 - 12
1) The programmable PC or PLC...etc turns on ABSM and SON at the leading edge of the internal
servo-on.
2) In response to ABS transfer mode, the servo detects and calculates the absolute position and
turns on ABST to notify the programmable PC or PLC...etc that the servo is ready for data
transmission.
3) After acknowledging that ABST is turned on, the programmable PC or PLC...etc will turn on
ABSR.
4) In response to ABSR, the servo outputs the lower 2 bits of the absolute position data and ABST in
the off state.
5) After acknowledging that ABST has been turned off, which implies that 2 bits of the absolute
position data have been transmitted, the programmable PC or PLC...etc reads the lower 2 bits of
the absolute position data and then turns off ABSR.
6) The servo turns on ABST so that it can respond to the next request. Steps 3) to 6) are repeated
until 32-bit data and the 6-bit checksum have been transmitted.
7) After receiving of the checksum, the programmable PC or PLC...etc confirms that the 19th ABST
is turned on, and then turns off ABSM. If ABSM is turned off during data transmission, ABSM is
interrupted and the [AL. E5 ABS time-out warning] occurs.
(c) Checksum
he checksum is the code which is used by the programmable PC or PLC...etc to check for errors in
the received absolute position data. The 6-bit checksum is transmitted following the 32-bit absolute
position data.
At the programmable PC or PLC...etc, calculate the sum of the received absolute position data using
the ladder program and compare it with the checksum code sent from the servo.
The method of calculating the checksum is shown. Every time the programmable PC or PLC...etc
receives 2 bits of absolute position data, it adds the data to obtain the sum of the received data. The
checksum is 6-bit data.
Example: absolute position data: -10 (FFFFFFF6H)

When the binary data of each 2 bits of the absolute
position data is added up, "10 1101
b
" is obtained.
Therefore, the checksum of "-10" (absolute position data) is "2DH"
