I am working with a Allen Bradley Absolute Controller ([FONT="]842E-SIP5BA).[/FONT]
[FONT="]I was wondering if anyone has any experience with them. Pros/Cons? Has anyone experience one going bad?[/FONT]

[FONT="]A little background, the one I am working with tends to drift. Basically the encoder is attached to a hydraulic arm. At certain positions, certain events happen. The only position I am have trouble with is the "home" position. Let's say home is at 175 degrees. (Note there are hard stops to help make sure "home" is in the same spot.) I'll visit the machine a couple hours later and the "home" position will be 177.5. This "home" position tends to drift 2-3 degrees. None of the other positions drift. They are always right on.[/FONT]
[FONT="][/FONT]
[FONT="]So I would like to hear if anyone has had a similar experience. [/FONT][FONT="][FONT="]
