What the big advantage of having an Absolute Encoder is that you only!

Changchun Rongde Optics Co.,Ltd.   Release time:2016/3/17   Browse:752

The big advantage of having an Absolute Encoder is that you only
need to reset the encoder value once, then you can drive and always
have a correct absolute encoder counter value - no matter how many
power cycles you make.
In other words the motor remembers it’s encoder counter value. the Absolute Encoder is partly mechanical (tooth
wheels) so no backup battery is needed.
Important!
The encoder is multiturn and has up to ±1024 Revs.
Single turn Resolution in MAC800 = 8000 CPR
Single turn Resolution in MAC400 = 8192 CPR (default, can be
changed to 8000 CPR)
I.e. the resolution is the same as for the incremental encoder (where
again MAC400 can be set to 2000 or 2048 PPR = 8000 / 8192 CPR).
