Absolute Position Detection for Finite Length Axes

* 1. This value depends on the setting of Pn212 (PG dividing ratio). The values in the
table are the maximum values.
* 2. Because the maximum value of Pn201 (PG dividing ratio) is 16384, the maximum value
with a 17-bit encoder is also 16384.

[ d ] Max. Revolution of Absolute Encoder/Multiturn Limit Setting
These parameters determine the maximum value of the number of encoder turns managed by the
SERVOPACK and MP2300.
The setting is determined by the SERVOPACK that is used and the type of axis (MP2300 fixed
parameter 1, bit 0). Set the parameters as shown in the following table when using an axis as a finite
length axis.
9.3.2 Setting the Zero Point for a Finite Length Axis
This section describes the procedure for setting the zero point (i.e., the absolute zero point or the zero
point of the machine coordinate system) for a finite length axis. It also describes the procedures for
storing the zero point offset.
