Overview

1.1

FeaturesThis chapter describes the features of this product, the names and functions of the parts, and the flowof the main tasks to use this product.

The ABS ST1300 Series is a reflective photoelectric linear encoder equipped with a two-sided
telecentric imaging optical system. The two-sided telecentric imaging optical system captures a scale
grid as an image and detects its travel distance using light receiving elements. With a focal depth
deeper than the conventional optical system, this system has a greater allowance for changes in thegap, such as allowance for scale undulation, stage posture change, and Detector installation. It also
secures a wide imaging range, resulting in a greater allowance even for dirt and small scratches on
the scale.
This product achieves the maximum effective length of 12 m, maximum response speed of 8 m/s, andminimum resolution of 0.001 μm. In addition, the following interface specifications compatible with thehigh-speed serial interface of the companies are available:
yy Mitsubishi Electric Corporation specifications
yy FANUC Corporation specifications
yy Panasonic Corporation specifications
yy Yaskawa Electric Corporation specifications
yy Mitutoyo Corporation ENSIS® specifications

For the scale mounting specifications D, E, and G, you can use the factory default set of scale andDetector as the system parameters are already written into the Detector before shipment. However, if
the Detector fails or another Detector is added later (such as when two or more Detectors are used in
one scale), the system parameters corresponding to the scale must be written into the new Detector.
For any questions about the system parameters, please contact your dealer or the nearest Mitutoyo
sales office/service center.
• Contact Mitutoyo for the cases below:- The Detector in use fails.
- A Detector needs to be stocked up as a backup for failure.
- A Detector needs to be added later.
• If the scale in use fails, both the scale and Detector need to be replaced.

Designing the Detector Bracket

Design the Detector bracket according to the figure below. Its shape must allow adjustment of the
Detector position (moire/gap). It is recommended that the Detector fixing screw holes should be longholes to make it easier to adjust the Detector position.

• Design it so that the parallelism of the Detector mounting surface against the scale mounting surface is within 0.05 mm.
• The change in the gap direction of the Detector within the maximum travel range of the machine
unit must be within 0.05 mm.

Tips
If the thickness of the Detector mounting bracket is insufficient, the rigidity of the bracket may decrease, which
also lowers the rigidity of the servo mechanism. Take this into consideration when determining the thickness ofthe bracket.

Mounting the Scale Main Unit

NOTICEBe very careful that the tape scale is not damaged or broken.

If dirt and dust are attached to the tape scale, it causes a malfunction or deteriorates the accuracy.
Wipe off the dirt and dust with a soft cloth soaked in ethanol or cleaning paper. Similarly, clean thetape scale mounting surface of the machine unit thoroughly with ethanol. Even for parts that come incontact with the tape scale, such as scale holders, clean them fully with ethanol.

Tips• Conduct temperature leveling thoroughly for both the tape scale and mounting parts before fixing them. The
accuracy of this product is guaranteed at 20 °C. The recommended temperature leveling is about 8 hours or
longer at 20 °C for both the tape scale and parts for mounting the scale. Perform installation after temperature leveling.
• If the temperature environment is insufficient, including temperature leveling, the predetermined indication
accuracy may not be achieved.
• To prevent any differences in temperature between the tape scale and the machine unit resulting from heatfrom the hands, wear gloves during installation.
• Please note that wiping the tape scale with ethanol after temperature leveling drops the temperature of thewiped area.

Mounting the Detector Bracket and Detector

NOTICEDo not directly touch the electrical connector pins during the Detector installation. Otherwise, electronic parts
may be damaged by static electricity. Be sure to take measures to prevent static electricity for the Detector
installation.

To use the scale with the Detector mounted, the machine main unit, as well as the attachment bracket, must be electrically grounded. Failure to do so may cause the scale unit and the Detector to beaffected by external noise. When it is difficult to ground due to the characteristics of the bracket material, make sure that the shielded part of the Detector cable is grounded using a ground bar.

Alarm Function

The ABS ST1300 Series is equipped with the Alarm Detection function inside the Detector.
Alarms detected by the Alarm Detection function can be categorized into two groups as follows: Caution and Error.
LED (yellow): Caution

LED (red): Error

yy Caution: Indicates a low-level sensor signal strength or temperature rise inside the Detector. Oncetroubleshoot the causes, the normal state is restored.
yy Error: Indicates a sensor signal strength error or absolute position detection error. Once it occurs,
the error state will be maintained until the error is reset, or the power is re-supplied.
Alarm detection

CautionError

Description
Signal strength alarm

yy It is output when the signal strength of thescale is too large or too small.
There is no error in the position data, butcheck the mounting position relationship between the tape scale and the Detector.
yy When the signal strength returns to the predetermined range, the alarm is canceled.

Thermal alarm

yy It is output when the temperature inside theDetector rises above 65 °C.
yy There is no error in the position data, but
continuing to use it may cause a malfunction.
Review the usage conditions or the installation
environment.

Over speed error

It is output when the speed of 8 m/s or more
occurs.
It is output when an error cause occurs during initialization immediately after turning on the poweror receiving the reset ID.
It is output when abnormality occurs in self-diagnosis.
It is output when an error occurs in the combination of absolute positions.
It is output when a communication error between
the Detector and the electrical connector occurs.
It is output when the signal strength of the scale
is too large or too small and there is a possibilityof abnormality in the output data.
