Segmented Error Compensation (SLEC)
Segmented Linear Error Compensation (SLEC) is used when the
results of the comparison with a reference standard shows non-
linear error. In SLEC the entire axis travel is divided into as many
as 99 user defined segments. The error in each segment is
compensated with a single correction factor. Each correction point
is measured with respect to the starting point. This starting point is
usually set close to the end of the scale. This starting point can
coincide with the absolute datum point.
