(5) Electronic Gear Ratio Setting Examples
The following examples show electronic gear ratio settings for different load configurations.
Reduce the fraction (both numerator and denominator) since the calculated result will not be within the setting
range. For example, reduce the numerator and denominator by four to obtain Pn201=32768, Pn203=3925 and
complete the settings.
