6.2. Position Scale
6.2.1. Resolution of position Scale
 A Motor has eighty teeth on its circumference, and the position sensor divides 1-tooth into
32 768 by digital signal processing. Therefore, the pulse count for one revolution of the Motor shall be
obtained as below.
32 768 × 80 = 2 621 440 [count/revolution]
 The parameters and the commands of the Megatorque Motor System depend on the unit (count) of the
resolution.
 However, the software over travel limit cannot be set in units of degree.
