8.2.1.29 Gear Ratio Denominator
A transmission factor can be programmed here when an external gear unit is used.
8.2.1.30 Spindle Pitch
Spindle pitch parameter = 0:
The position value is output in steps (720 steps per revolution of the output shaft).
Spindle pitch parameter > 0 (when operating the actuator on a spindle):
The position value is output as traveling distance in 1/100 mm, rather than in steps. Input of
the target position is now in 1/100 mm as well,
e.g., spindle with a pitch of 2 mm spindle pitch parameter = 200.
8.2.1.31 Calibration Value
Changes to the calibration value are adopted for calculation of the position value only after
calibration via S command
Position value = 0 + calibration value + offset value
