← TechnologyWhich consequence occurs when a rotary encoder loses quadrature signal during servo motor positioning?
A)Accumulated positional errors emerge✓
B)Motor overheats due to excessive current
C)Communication link momentarily breaks
D)System abruptly switches to braking
💡 Explanation
Repeated counts interpreted will result in drift because the incremental movement is misinterpreted by the PLC. Therefore, servo positioning goes off rather than other motor failures because quadrature encodes direction and count.
