In this group box the items listed hereafter are available.
Continuous reading
button you enable the transmission of
continuous commands to read the Input Registers uninterruptedly. After
pressing the button, its background is coloured orange and a green progress bar
appears beneath the field to indicate that a reading operation is being

Current position
It shows the current position of the device expressed in counts. The value does
not appear if an error is active in the device. See the
Angle
It shows the angular position of the encoder shaft expressed in degrees. The
value does not appear if an error is active in the device.
Counts
It shows the angular position of the encoder shaft expressed in counts per
revolution. The value does not appear if an error is active in the device.
Turns
It shows the number of measured revolutions (
). The value does not appear if an error is active in the device.
Baud rate dip switch
It shows the data transmission rate (baud rate and parity bit) that is currently
set through the DIP switch A (it is expressed in decimal notation if the
Real
values
check box is selected -4 in the Figure-, in a string format -19200 Even in
the Figure- and by means of a picture). See the
register on page 78. To set the baud rate refer to the “4.5.1 Setting data
transmission rate: Baud rate and Parity bit (Figure 3)“ section on page 26.
