Absolute System
Enter the RSW value of the driver to which you want to communicate from the host to axis (*1 data) of the
command block, and transmit the command according to the RS232 communication protocol. For details
of communication, refer to P.278, "Communication".
Transmission and Reception Sequence of Absolute Data
Servo-Ready output will be turned on 2sec. after the control power is turned on. Capture the absolute data
in the following communication protocol while the Servo-Ready output is on and the fix the motor with brake
by Servo-Off (when the motor is at complete stall.).
RS232 Communication Protocol
Refer to the instruction manual of the host for the transmission/reception method of command.

Data of *1 and *2 are determined by the
setup of RSW (ID) of the front panel.
Check sum becomes OK'ed when the
lower 8-bit of the sum of the received
absolute data (15 characters) is 0.

• Allow 500ms or longer interval for axis switching when you want to capture multiple
axes data.
• It is recommended for you to repeat the above communication more than 2 times to
confirm the absolute data coincide, in order to avoid mis-operation due to unexpected
noise.
