13. ABSOLUTE POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM
CAUTION

13.1 Features

For normal operation, as shown below, the encoder consists of a detector designed to detect a position
within one revolution and a cumulative revolution counter designed to detect the number of revolutions.
The absolute position detection system always detects the absolute position of the machine and keeps it
battery-backed, independently of whether the servo system controller power is on or off.
Therefore, once home position return is made at the time of machine installation, home position return is
not needed when power is switched on thereafter.
If a power failure or a fault occurs, restoration is easy.
Also, the absolute position data, which is battery-backed by the super capacitor in the encoder, can be
retained within the specified period (cumulative revolution counter value retaining time) if the cable is
unplugged or broken.

If an absolute position erase (A.25) or an absolute position counter warning (A.E3)
has occurred, always perform home position setting again. Not doing so can cause
runaway.
