Absolute Encoders

5-36

The following parameter is used to periodically clear the encoder’s counter (return
the setting to 0) after a designated ratio of motor to load axis revolutions. This func-
tion is called the multi-turn limit.

Note: The term Multi-turn Limit refers to the highest number of rotations the encoder’s counter will display

before returning the counter to 0.

• When Pn205 is set to the default (65535), multi-turn data varies in the range of

32768 to +32767.

• With any other Pn205 value entered, data varies from 0 to the set value.

Note: To activate reassignment of this value, the user must first change the parameter, and then cycle (turn

OFF and then turn ON) the power.

Since the encoder’s multi-turn limit value is set as default to 65535, the following
alarm occurs if the servo amplifier’s power supply is cycled (turned OFF and ON)
after changing parameter Pn205:

Note: O: ON (“L”) signal

X: OFF (“H”) signal

In order to set a multi-turn limit value to the encoder, perform the multi-turn limit
setting operation (Fn013 or serial command MLTLIMSET).

This operation can be executed using the hand-held digital operator, the servo ampli-
fier panel operator (Fn013), or by serial command (MLTLIMSET).

Note: The multi-turn limit setting is enabled only during the multi-turn limit value mismatch alarm. Cycle

the power after performing this operation.
