8.4.6 Absolute Encoder Reception Sequence
The sequence in which the SERVOPACK receives outputs from the absolute encoder and transmits them to host
controller is shown below.
(1) Outline of Absolute Signals
The serial data, pulses, etc., of the absolute encoder that are output from the SERVOPACK are output from the
PAO, PBO, PCO, and PSO signals as shown below.
(2) Absolute Encoder Transmission Sequence and Contents
1. Set the SEN signal at high level.
2. After 100 ms, set the system to serial data reception-waiting-state. Clear the incremental pulse up/down
counter to zero.
3. Receive eight bytes of serial data.
4. The system enters a normal incremental operation state about 25 ms after the last serial data is received.
• Serial data: Indicates how many turns the motor shaft has made from the reference position (position spec-
ified at setup).
• Initial incremental pulse: Outputs pulses at the same pulse rate as when the motor shaft rotates from the
origin to the current position at about 1250 min
-1
(for 17 bits when the dividing pulse is at the factory set-
ting).
