Eliminating buttons or switches, the HMT25 multi-turn absolute encoder integrates an electronic reset capability that initializes the component via software. By sending a timed pulse through the reset pin, the encoder value gets set to zero through a non-volatile internal memory. As the encoder uses a geared multi-turn code wheel system, the physical position at any time is determined even in prolonged power down situations.
