When I move the robot axis, the encoder data is displayed. If I cycle power to the robot, the current position is lost. I have already set the robot to home position before making programming changes. It still can't keep the last data. Can you help solve this problem?</p> http://controlsoverload.com/questions/222/motoman-robot-encoder-losing-position/223#223 Answer by Jeremy Sluyters for Motoman Robot Encoder Losing Position Jeremy Sluyters 2010-03-11T15:27:26Z 2010-03-11T15:27:26Z <p>If the robot is not remembering it's position after a power cycle, that could be due to the encoder batteries. Try replacing the encoder batteries.</p>
