Abstract
A fault detection device is provided which detects a fault having occurred in encoder wiring in a system including a controlled apparatus having an encoder and a controller controlling the controlled apparatus and, in the system, the encoder and the controller are connected with each other through the encoder wiring. In a case that a signal which is transmitted from the encoder to the controller is defined as a first signal, and a signal which is transmitted from the controller to the encoder is defined as a second signal, the fault detection device includes a first detection circuit which detects a fault in the encoder wiring through which the first signal is transmitted, and a second detection circuit which detects a fault in the encoder wiring through which the second signal is transmitted.
