A device that simply outputs ON/OFF pulses by the rotation of the axis. 1-phase types output only A pulses, and
do not indicate the axis rotation direction. 2-phase types output both A and B pulse trains, and can judge the
rotation direction. The direction is judged to be forward if the B pulse train turns ON when A is ON, and judged to
be reverse if A turns ON when B is ON. There is also another type of incremental encoder with a zero signal. The
most commonly used incremental encoders output between 100 and 10,000 pulses per axis rotation. Refer to the
term "ENCODER".

The current value is 0 in this system. Positions are expressed by the designated direction and distance of travel.
Also called the relative address system. This system is used in fixed-feed, etc. Compare ABSOLUTE SYSTEM.

In this condition, the machine is blocked from moving to the next operation until the operation in progress is
complete. This function is used to prevent damage to devices and malfunctioning.

This refers to a device to change a direct current (DC) to an alternating current (AC). The device actually
changes the motor speed by changing 50Hz or 60Hz of commercial frequency to direct current once, then
changing it again to a 5 to 120Hz alternating current and controlling the motor speed.
This resets error of axis. Note that if the cause of the error is not eliminated at that time, the error will occur again.
