Operating Procedure
Use the following procedure to set the origin of an absolute linear encoder.
1.
Click the
Servo Drive Button in the workspace of the Main Window of the S.
2.
Select
Set Origin
in the Menu Dialog Box.
The Set Origin Dialog Box will be displayed.
1. After you set the origin, the /S-RDY (Servo Ready) signal will become inactive because the
system position data was changed. Always turn the SERVOPACK power supply OFF and ON
again.
2. After you set the origin, the Servomotor phase data in the SERVOPACK will be discarded. If
you are using a Linear Servomotor without a Polarity Sensor, execute polarity detection again
to save the Servomotor phase data in the SERVOPACK.
