Resetting the Encoder

If [8540467* *-axis:Encoder System Down] is displayed or [8540468* *-axis:Encoder over speed error] is displayed due to excessive impact at that time of the controller power off, the encoder must be reset and CALSET work must be done.

In CALSET work, there are “CALSET” and “Recover CALSET data”.
At the beginning of use, and if a motor is changed, execute ”CALSET” and in other cases, execute ”Recover CALSET data”.

When there is no errors, the following process is not required.

When resetting the encoder, connect only the motor cable to the extended-joint support robot controller and be sure to disconnect the robot cable from it. This is to prevent the robot motor from getting reset.
