Setting the PAO, PBO, and PCO (Encoder Divided Pulse
Output) Signals
Set the position resolution in Pn281 (Encoder Output Resolution).
Enter the number of phase A and phase B edges for the setting.
Setting Example
If a single pulse (multiplied by 4) is output for 1
μ
m, the setting would be 20.
If a single pulse (multiplied by 4) is output for 0.5
μ
m, the setting would be 40.
The encoder divided pulse output would have the following waveform if the setting is 20.
“
↑
” indicates the edge positions. In this example, the set value is 20 and therefore the number
of edges is 20.
Note: The upper limit of the encoder signal output frequency (multiplied by 4) is 6.4 Mpps. Do not set a value that
would cause the output to exceed 6.4 Mpps.
If the output exceeds the upper limit, an A.511 alarm (Overspeed of Encoder Output Pulse Rate) will be out-
put.

Note: The maximum setting for the encoder output resolution is 4,096.
If the resolution of the external encoder exceeds 4,096, pulse output will no longer be possible at the resolu-

Ball screw lead: 30 mm
Speed:1,600 mm/s
If the setting is 20 and the speed is 1,600 mm/s, the output frequency would be 1.6 Mpps
= 1,600,000 = 1.6 Mpps
Because 1.6 Mpps is less than 6.4 Mpps, this setting can be used.
