External encoder (X14)
Position Detection and Positioning
The following applies for position detection with an external encoder on X14:
• Variable H510 shows the actual position of the position control ACTPOS. EXT
• Variable H506 shows the touch probe position 1 TP. POS1EXT
• Variable H504 shows the touch probe position 2 TP. POS2EXT
The variables are always evaluated with parameter P944.
INFORMATION
The calculation of P210 (P gain hold controller) is optimized for P941 = motor encoder
at start up. If you use an external encoder or absolute encoder, the parameter may
have to be set to a lower value.
