3 Setting of the measuring units (measuring range):
Simplified representation:
Measuring
units
per
rev.
Standard:
8192
Revolutions
Standard:
4096
The resolution per revolution are the pulses which are provided for a revolution. The
revolutions are the further pulses for another entire revolution.
Example: 8192 x 2 revolutions = total: 16384
(1,2,…8192, 8193,…16383, 16384,1,2,…)
Input of the figures:
Maximum
units:
8192
units x 4096 revolutions => total measuring range 33 554 432
The revolutions must never be more than 4096, therefore the number of total measuring units
is irrelevant.
Example:
7096
units x 2048 revolutions = 14 532 608 total measuring range
=> OK.
196
units x 4097 revolutions = 803 012 total measuring range
=> not OK.
Integers:
Only integer values may be entered.
Example:
8192
units x 2.5 revolutions = 20 480 total measuring range => not OK.
