ekr CON 600, ekr CON 600 net – Master-Slave Guiding with Sensor Positioner 29/47
6.5.7 Entering the Position Offset for the Sensor Slides
With the position offset, you can create a reference system with
an absolute reference point for the position of the sensor slides.
This reference point can be a distinctive point on the machine
(e.g. machine wall or center of the machine). As an alternative,
you can also use the park position of a sensor slide or the middle
of the sensor positioner as reference point. The set offset value
(position offset) is added to the current position of the sensor
slide and then results in the absolute distance to the reference
point selected. This distance is displayed in the operating display
under the symbol for the sensor slides.
Example 1: Reference point = Machine frame
Example 2: Reference point = Middle of sensor positioner

Fig.13: Example for the determination of the position offset
If you use the middle of the sensor positioner as a reference point
(see example 2), a negative position offset results for one sensor
slide (in the represented example, sensor slide 1). In this case, the
position value of the sensor slide appears in the operating display
with a negative prefix sign. When entering the position offset, it
is essential to observe the prefix sign (+/-).
