Setting Fixed Parameters According to Encoder Type and Axis Type
The method for setting or changing the coordinate system origin depends on the encoder type,
motor type, and axis type (infinite-length axis or finite-length axis). Use the following flowchart
to correctly set the parameter for your application.
