14. USING A LINEAR SERVO MOTOR
14 - 20
14.3.3 Home position return
POINT
The incremental linear encoder and the absolute position linear encoder have
different reference home positions at the home position return.
(1) Incremental linear encoder
CAUTION
If the resolution or the stop interval (the third digit of [Pr. PL01]) of the linear
encoder is large, it is very dangerous since the linear servo motor may crash into
the stroke end.
(a) When the linear encoder home position (reference mark) exists in the home position return direction
When an incremental linear encoder is used, the home position is the position per 1048576 pulses
(changeable with the third digit of [Pr. PL01]) with reference to the linear encoder home position
(reference mark) passed through first after a home position return start. Change the setting value of
[Pr. PL01] according to the linear encoder resolution.

The following shows the relation between the stop interval at the home position return and the linear
encoder resolution. For example, when the linear encoder resolution is 0.001
μ
m and the parameter
for the stop interval at the home position return, [Pr. PL01], is set to "_ 5 _ _" (16777216 pulses), the
stop interval is 16.777 mm. The value inside a bold box indicates the recommended stop interval for
each linear encoder resolution.
