Drive encoder modulo range (P-AXIS-00528)

P-AXIS-00528

Drive encoder modulo range

Description

If an encoder is connected to the drive which delivers a modulo position, the NC has to handle the encoder overflow. To do this the encoder range (number of different positions delivered by the encoder) of the encoder has to be set up in this parameter.

Example encoder with 16-bit resolution:

The encoder delivers 2¹⁶ = 65536 different positions (0… 65535), so the parameter antr.drive_encoder_modulo_range must be set to 65536.

This parameter is inactive if set to 0. In this case the default setting is used for the specific drive type.
