8.5.1 Selecting an Absolute Encoder
8
If a Servomotor with an absolute encoder is used, a system to detect the absolute position can be
made in the host controller. Consequently, operation can be performed without performing an
origin search immediately after the power is turned ON.

Note This parameter setting goes into effect when the power is turned OFF and ON again after the
change has been made.
