7.4.2. The measuring offset
If you selected the menupoint "
Measuring offset
" in the system setting menu, the measuring offset
menu appears on the menu:
Here you can indicate, using the
and
keys, wether
your controlling system is a rotatory (e.g. an eccentric
press) or a linear (e.g. a knee lever press) moved
system.
You confirm your input with the
key.
7.4.2.1. Zero offset with rotatory movements
If you have chosen a rotatory movement, you can now carry out the input of the offset
The offset is subtracted from the physical position. This
makes it possible for you to shift the zero point.
7.4.2.2. Measuring offset with a linear moved system
If you have chosen a linear movement, you can now carry out the input of the moving range and the
offset.
At the menu point "
Start
" you enter the desired begin of
the proceeding range. You even have the possibility to
enter negative values.
The "
End
" value of the measuring range changes
automatically and determines the total proceeding way of
the measuring system with its position. Here an input is
not possible.
Attention:
If the range between start value and end
value is under- or overshot during the way gathering of the measuring system, the
CamCon switches off with the error message "
Pos.Err 3"
.
7.4.2.3. Zero offset with linear movements
If you have chosen a linear movement, you can now
carry out the input of the offset.
In the menu point "
Offset
" you enter the zero offset of the
measuring system. The offset is subtracted from the
physical position. This makes it possible for you to shift
the zero point.
Note:
If the rotation direction of the electronic gear is negative, the offset must be set to a value
samller than zero (e.g. -359). See chapter "7.4.1.4.1. Electronically changing the rotation
direction" on page 46.
