The encoder resolution, which is the smallest distance measured by the encoder, is given by the following
formula:
Parameter K75 calculation, formula for rotary motors:
Offset correction (K70, K71):
If parameter K70 or/and K71 is smaller than 0, a positive offset is added to the corresponding signal and a value
higher than 0 adds a negative offset. If parameter K70 or/and K71 is equal to 0, no offset correction is done.
Remark: Monitorings M40 and M41 allows the user to monitor the sine and cosine signals of the analog
encoder (refer to §12.3.7
for more information).
Amplitude correction (K72, K73):
The amplitude correction only allows the decrease of the signal amplitude and never the increase of it. That is
why, the encoder head tuning is highly important because it will not be possible to correct a too weak
amplitude with the software. It is possible to decrease a signal amplitude at best by a factor 2 with the value
16384. The value 32767 does not correct any encoder signals amplitude.
Remark: During offset and amplitude corrections manual research, it is advised to start first disabling
individually every signal offset, and then to correct the amplitudes in order to adjust the bigger on
the smaller.
