ENCODER 1 SETUP

Encoder Setup

You must tell the readout something about the encoders. Select ENCODER

SETUP from the Installation Setup list and enter the encoder number (the

number is defined by the input connector number on the back panel of the

readout).

The encoder number you selected is

shown at the top of the form.

RESOLUTION—first use the softkeys to

select between linear and angular

movement.

Linear—move the corresponding

machine axis in a positive direction

until the readout senses and displays

the resolution. You won’t have to

move more than two inches. For encoders without Position-Trac, enter the

resolution in microns (µm).

Angular—for an encoder used to measure angular position, enter the number

of counts per revolution.

DIRECTION—you can change the count direction with the

POSITIVE

and

NEGATIVE

softkeys.

AXIS TYPE—select either longitudinal or crossfeed. A crossfeed axis will be able

to display position either as a diameter or as a radius. Just press the

RAD

DIA

key to select which way you want to display it.
