Absolute Position Detection Setting
Set the maximum number of absolute encoder rotations for simple absolute infinite axis posi-
tion management.
The following parameters can be set after you set absolute position detection.
* The following formula is used for the automatic calculation:
No. Fixed Parameter
No. 1, bit 9 Simple Absolute Infinite Axis Position Management
No.38 Maximum Number of Absolute Encoder Rotations
The values that are set here are also saved in Pn205 (Multiturn Limit Setting).

Simple Absolute Infinite Axis Posi-
tion Management
Enable or disable simple absolute infinite axis position manage-
ment.
This selection is enabled if an infinite-length axis is selected for
the axis type (2) in the Axis Type Setting Dialog Box.
Auto*
Automatically calculates the maximum number of absolute
encoder rotations.
This button is enabled if the Managed Option was selected at
(1).
Maximum rotation amount of abso-
lute encoder (Maximum Number of
Absolute Encoder Rotations)
Set the maximum number of absolute encoder rotations.
If a finite-length axis is selected as the axis type (2) in the Axis
Type Setting Dialog Box, then this value can be set to a maxi-
mum of 65,535. If an infinite-length axis is selected, the maxi-
mum setting will be 65,534.
Set
Click this button to set the absolute position detection and
return to the Fixed Parameter Setting Dialog Box.
Cancel
Click this button to return to the Fixed Parameter Setting Dialog
Box without setting the absolute position detection.
