A NOTE ABOUT STAGE CORRECTION AND REFERENCE MARKS
: The SLEC and NLEC stage calibration
functions require that a repeatable startup zero position be established prior to calibration and each
time the Mx200 readout is started. This position can be established by configuring either Single, or Dual
Reference marks in the Encoder Setup Screen. When configured the operator will be prompted to cross
the reference marks for each enabled axis at startup.
