17.3.7 Absolute position detection system under fully closed loop system

An absolute type linear encoder is necessary to configure an absolute position detection system under fully
closed loop control using a linear encoder. In this case, the encoder battery (MR-BAT6V1SET) need not be
installed to the servo amplifier. When an rotary encoder is used, an absolute position detection system can
be configured by installing the encoder battery (MR-BAT6V1SET) to the servo amplifier. In this case, the
battery life will be shorter because the power consumption is increased as the power is supplied to the two
encoders of motor side and load side.
For the absolute position detection system with linear encoder, the restrictions mentioned in this section
apply. Enable the absolute position detection system with [Pr. PA03 Absolute position detection system] and
use this servo within the following restrictions.
(1) Using conditions
(a) Use an absolute type linear encoder with the load-side encoder.
(b) Select Always fully closed loop ([Pr. PA01] = _ _ 1 _ and [Pr. PE01] = _ _ _ 0).
(2) Absolute position detection range using encoder
Encoder type
Linear encoder (serial
interface)
(3) Alarm detection
The absolute position-related alarm ([AL. 25]) and warnings (AL. 92] and [AL. 9F]) are not detected.
(4) Absolute position data transfer to controller
It is the same process as rotary servo motors. (Refer to section 12.8.)
