5.1 Types of Encoder Cables
Different encoder cables are used for the absolute encoder and incremental encoder types.
Incremental type
Be sure to use the LS type encoder cable (CB-X1-PLA
) for the R-axis.
Absolute type
Either the normal type (CB-X1-PA
) or LS type (CB-X1-PLA) can be used.
5.2 About Incremental Type and Absolute Type
Incremental encoder type
Since the position data is cleared when the power is turned off, home return is required every time the
power is turned off and then on again.

CB-X1-PLA
Absolute encoder type
Since the position data is retained even after the power is turned off, home return is not required when
the power is turned off and turned on again.
An absolute reset must be performed first.
