2. Renishaw measuring systems (e.g. RGH22B)
The Renishaw RGH22B measuring system (graduations = 20 µm) has com-
patible connections with the Heidenhain products from serial number
G69289 onwards. The zero marker on earlier scanning head models cannot
be evaluated. Since the reference marker on the Renishaw RGH22B has a
direction-dependent position, encoder signals BID and DIR must be para-
meterized such that the reference marker is output in only one direction.
The direction (positive/negative) is dependent on the geometric configura-
tion on the machine and the reference point approach direction.

The count direction of the measuring system is positive if the scanning head
moves in the direction of the outgoing cable in relation to the gold strip.

Note
If the scanning head is mechanically coupled to the primary part, the
outgoing cable direction must be different. Otherwise invert the actual value!
