( 2 ) Position Management with a Finite Length Axis
Initialize the axis position as described next when power is turned ON if an absolute encoder is used
for a finite length axis.
• Current position for the machine coordinate system = Encoder position when servo power is
turned ON
*
+ Zero Point Offset (setting parameter OL
48)
* The encoder position when servo power is turned ON is as follows:
Multiturn data
×
Number of encoder pulses + initial increment pulses.
Refer to your SERVOPACK manual for information on the initial increment pulses.
The Zero Point Offset (setting parameter OL
48) is always valid for a finite length axis. If the
machine coordinate system zero point is changed during machine operation, the current position may
become inaccurate.
The meaning of setting parameter OL
48 will differ for a finite length axis and infinite length
axis.
• Finite Length Axis
Set OL
48 to the difference between IL
48 and OL
10 (IL
48 – OL
10) to
make the current position of the machine coordinate system the zero position.
IL
10 = 10,000 and OL
48 = 100
