January 2012 6.4 Encoders 653
For spindles, the MANUALplus 620 requires the following values:
MP_posEncoderDist: Enter 360.
MP_posEncoderIncr: Enter the line count of the encoder used.
MP_distPerMotorTurn: Enter 360.
MP_posEncoderDist
Distance for number of signal periods from MP_posEncoderIncr
Available from NCK software version: 597 110-01.
Format: Numerical value
Input: 0.001 to 100 000 [mm] or [°]
For spindles: 360°
For multiturn encoders with EnDat interface:
Distance per encoder revolution
Default: 5 [mm] or [°]
Access: LEVEL3
Reaction: REF
MP_posEncoderIncr
Number of signal periods for distance from
MP_posEncoderDist
Available from NCK software version: 597 110-01.
Format: Numerical value
Input: 1 to 100 000 [incr.]
Enter the number of increments of the external encoder. For
spindles you must enter the line count of the rotary encoder
used.
For multiturn encoders with EnDat interface:
Signal periods per encoder revolution
Default: 2048 [incr.]
Access: LEVEL3
Reaction: REF
MP_posEncoderRefDist
Nominal increment between two fixed reference marks
Available from NCK software version: 597 110-01.
Format: Numerical value
Input: 1 to 65 535 [signal periods]
Number of signal periods between the reference marks. The
parameter is only relevant for encoders with distance-coded
reference marks.
Default: 1000 [signal periods]
Access: LEVEL3
Reaction: REF
