[ c ] Application Example of Simple Absolute Infinite Length Position Control Function
An example of using the simple absolute infinite length position control function is given
below.
[ d ] Setting the Zero Point for a Simple Absolute Infinite Axis
Set the zero point as described here after initializing the absolute encoder to set the zero point of the
machine coordinate system and establish the machine coordinate system.
The procedure to set the zero point for a simple absolute infinite axis is shown below.
* 1. The OL
48 value must be saved when it is set.
* 2. See the information on the 7-17 page for more details on saving the OL
48 value.

5 = 6/5 (number of turns to
reset)
■
Conditions
(59705+1) / (6/5) = 49755
The result is an integer, i.e., the remainder is 0, so
the simple absolute infinite length position control
function can be used.
