(c) Calculation of positioning address and concept of absolute position detection
system
Use the following expression to calculate the positioning address.
(Positioning address) = (Movement amount per pulse)  (Number of output pulses) + (OP address) 
Expression 1
(d) Concept for the unit of mm, inch or pulse
The range which satisfies Conditions 1 and 2 can be used as the positioning address of the absolute position
detection system.
The range which does not satisfy Conditions 1 and 2 cannot be used as the positioning address of the absolute
position detection system.
The concepts of the positioning addresses in mm, inch and pulse are identical, the following examples provide
those of the mm unit.

Ex.
• There are the following conditions to calculate the positioning address:
Movement amount per pulse: 0.1 (m)

OP address: 0.0 (m)

Feedback pulses = 8192 (pulse)

• Calculate the upper/lower limit values of the positioning address which can be specified from the output
pulse count using range in Condition 1 and the positioning address calculation expression (Expression 1).
Lower limit value of positioning address (the number of negative pulses in Condition 1 is used for

calculation)
(Positioning address)
= (Movement amount per pulse)  (Number of output pulses) + (OP address)
= 0.1  (-268435456) + 0.0
= -26843545.6 (m)
Upper limit value of positioning address (the number of positive pulses in Condition 1 is used for

calculation)
(Positioning address)
= (Movement amount per pulse)  (Number of output pulses) + (OP address)
= 0.1  268435455 + 0.0
= 26843545.5 (m)
• The upper/lower limit values of the positioning address calculated are within the range of Condition 2.
Hence, the positioning range [-26843545.6 to 26843545.5 (m)] calculated in Condition 1 can be used in
the absolute position detection system.
Positioning outside of the range -26843545.6 to 26843545.5 (m) cannot be used in the absolute position
detection system.
