Tip: To set a 1:1 [step to count] relationship, set Input Resolution
to the same value as Positioning Resolution. Example: For an 800
count per rev motor (as in the figure above) set Input Resolution
to 800 pulses per rev. For a 6400 count per rev motor, set to
6400 pulses per rev.

counts of rotation. ClearPath can be configured such that a
single step pulse commands 2, 4, 8, or more counts of moti
This is mainly used to compensate for a "slow" controller, i.e
controller that can't generate pulses fast enough to command
desired peak velocity.
With the above Input Resolution setting, it takes only 200 step
pulses to make this [800 count] motor rotate one full revolution.
• Case #3. You want multiple step pulses to command one
n. This use case is less typical, but can be useful count of rotatio
if you need to replace a step motor of differing resolution with a
ClearPath (and you don't want to rewrite software or change
controller settings).
By selecting 3200 step pulses per rev, the controller must send 4
step pulses to command a single count of motion, 8 steps to
command two counts of motion, and so forth.
With the above Input Resolution setting, 3200 step pulses will make
this [800 count] motor rotate one full revolution.
