5.7.5 Absolute Encoder Reception Sequence
The sequence in which the servo amplifier receives data from the absolute encoder
and transmits them to the host device is shown below.
Be sure you understand this section when designing the host device.
 Outline of Absolute Signals
The absolute encoder’s outputs are PAO, PBO, PCO, and PSO signals as shown
below.

Contents of Absolute Data
• Serial data: Indicates how many turns the motor shaft has made from the
reference position (position specified at setup).
• Initial incremental pulse: Outputs pulses at the same pulse rate as when the
motor shaft rotates from the home position to the current position at
approximately 2500rpm (for 16 bits when the dividing pulse is at the default
setting).
