Indexing function offset
The indexing function offset defined by how many measuring system units the indexing
position ”1” has been offset by the actual value 0.
To calculate the division, the control equates the indexing position 1 with the actual value 0. As
these two points do not coincide in most cases, this reference point can be offset. This is
done with machine data ”Division offset” in which the distance between actual value 0 and
division 1 is defined.
