1. LINEAR ENCODER

More careful measures against oil and dust must be taken for the linear encoder
CAUTION than the linear servo motor. For details, contact each linear encoder
manufacturer.

POINT
Always use the linear encoder cable introduced in this chapter. Using other
products may cause a malfunction.
For details of the linear encoder specifications, performance and assurance,
contact each linear encoder manufacturer.
A linear encoder communication method cannot be used depending on the
software version of the servo amplifier. Refer to section 1.1 for combinations of
the communication methods and software versions.
When the linear encoder is incorrectly installed, an alarm or a position mismatch
may occur. In this case, refer to the following general checking points for the
linear encoder to confirm the installation.
Check that the gap between the head and scale is proper.
Check the scale head for rolling and yawing (looseness of scale head section).
Check the scale surface for contamination and scratches.
Check that the vibration and temperature are within the specified range.
Check that the speed is within the permissible range without overshooting.
Refer to section 1.1 for combinations of the linear encoders and servo
amplifiers.
When using a shell kit (36310-3200-008/36310-F200-008) of 3M or connector
set (54599-1019) of Molex, securely connect the external conductor of the
shielded cable to the ground plate and fix it to the connector shell.

Cable
Ground plate

Screw

MR-J4-_GF_(-RJ) servo amplifiers with software version A1 or later are


compatible with the linear encoder.

POINT
When the absolute position detection system is configured, the absolute position
battery is not required.

1.3.1 LC 495M/LC 195M (absolute type)

POINT
This linear encoder is of four-wire type. When using this linear encoder, change
the parameter to select the four-wire type. For changing parameters, refer to
each servo amplifier instruction manual.
When using a linear encoder of four-wire type with fully closed loop control, use
an MR-J4-(DU)_A_-RJ/MR-J4-(DU)_B_-RJ.
When using a linear encoder of four-wire type with scale measurement function,
use an MR-J4-(DU)_B_-RJ.

1.7 A/B/Z-phase differential output linear encoder

POINT
When using a linear encoder of A/B/Z-phase differential output method, use an
MR-J4-(DU)_A_-RJ/MR-J4-(DU)_B_-RJ.

This section explains the connection of the A/B/Z-phase differential output linear encoder. Prepare the MR-
J3CN2 connector set for the encoder cable and fabricate it according to the wiring diagram in (3) of this
section.

(1) A/B/Z-phase differential output linear encoder specifications


Each signal of the A, B, and Z-phase of the linear encoder is provided in the differential line driver
output. It cannot be provided in the collector output.
The phase differences of the A-phase and B-phase pulses and the pulse width of the Z-phase pulse
need to be 200 ns or more.
The output pulse of A-phase and B-phase of the A/B/Z-phase differential output linear encoder is in the
multiply-by-four count method.
The linear encoder without Z-phase cannot make a home position return.
The tolerable resolution range is between 0.001 µm and 5 µm. Please select a linear encoder within the
range.

For fabrication, use a cable durable against the long period of bending action. Even though the cable
length is max. 30 m for the RS-422 communication, the length may be shortened due to the power
supply voltage drop or the specifications of linear encoder.
A connection example is shown below. Contact each linear encoder manufacturer for details.

(MR-J4-_B_-RJ/MR-J4-_GF_-RJ) to "_1_ _".
2. Securely connect a shielded wire to the plate (ground plate) in the connector.
3. We recommend the following specifications encoder cables for the linear encoder
which consumption current is 350 mA. When the consumption current of the
encoder is less than 350 mA, the paired connections can be decreased.
4. When using an A/B/Z-phase differential output linear encoder, connect PSEL to
the LG terminal.
