7. Absolute Position Detection System
(Absolute Current Value Read)-ABS Instruction
With the use of the servo absolute position detection system, the built-in positioning function uses the current
ABS value read-out (ABS) instruction to read out the current value (absolute position (ABS) data) from the
MELSERVO-H, -J2(S), or -J3 servo amplifier.
→ For items to be observed in programming, refer to Section 4.7.
→ For the servo amplifier and connection of the MELSERVO Series, refer to the Appendix and the
examples of connection.
