command reference for more informaiton.
The unique position within one cycle can be read using the following equation:

The overall position can be determined using:
Fine2lesCoarse_cycPosition
n
+⋅=
Where:
n is the number of bits of resolution that were used in the conversion.
Coarse_cycles is the whole number of cycles counted.
Fine is the interpolated position within one cycle.
Vb and Va are the two signals as indicated in Figure A7-23: Sinusoidal Encoder Signals.
For example, if the encoder cycle is 40 microns, AF10 results in 2

=1024 counts per cycle, or a resolution of 39
nanometers per count.
