Absolute vs Incremental Encoders

Most units in the DET-2 class have Incremental
Encoders, which means they need the vertical
and horizontal angles reset when they are
turned on after power down or AUTO
SHUTOFF

Some competitive units may have Absolute
Encoder systems, that “remember” their last
angles and don’t require initialization

Although accuracy can degrade over time with
these systems

The DET-2 “solution” to this is to disable AUTO-
SHUTOFF (SEE the PARAMETER SETTING
section)
