External Feedback Pulse Dividing Ratio Setting (Pn324, Pn325)
Set the dividing ratio for the encoder resolution and external encoder resolution.
Check the number of encoder feedback pulses and the number of external encoder output
pulses per motor rotation, and set External Feedback Pulse Dividing Numerator (Pn324) and
External Feedback Pulse Dividing Denominator (Pn325) so that the following formula works
out.
If this divider setting is wrong, there will be deviations between the position calculated from
encoder pulses and the position calculated from external encoder. If the movement distance
is long, these deviations accumulate and cause an internal/external feedback pulse error
counter overflow level error.
 Setting Examples
 Ball screw pitch: 10 mm
 External encoder resolution: 0.1 μm
 Encoder resolution: 20 bits

Numerator
Set the numerator of the external 
encoder divider setting. Normally, set the 
number of encoder output pulses per 
motor rotation. If the set value is 0, the 
encoder resolution is set automatically.
