Note After completion of ABS origin setting, as a safety precaution, perform backup
for the system parameters using CX-Motion.
1, 2, 3...
1. Select “5. ABS SETTING,” from the EXTENSION mode menu.

Indicates selected axes as follows:
ALL: All axes; X: X axis; Y: Y axis; Z: Z axis; U: U axis
3. Press the YES Key to perform origin setting.
The absolute encoder values will be written into the system parameters.
When the operation has been completed, the following display will appear.

ALL| COMPLETE!

This display will appear even if origin setting is accidentally performed for an
axis not using an absolute encoder. In this case, however, the absolute en-
coder values will not be written into the system parameters.
Note When using the CS1W-MC221/421, the absolute position settings
will be stored in the internal memory. For this reason, if the power sup-
ply for the MC Unit is turned OFF, the absolute position settings will
return to the original values. Save the parameters by writing them to
flash memory.
