Distance coded rotary encoder
In case of setting a rotary axis, if a parameter DCRx (No. 1815#3) is set, the
setting axis is regarded as being equiped with a distance coded rotary
encoder.
In case of distance coded rotary encoder, the marker interval may be
different from parameter setting value. (a-b section of the following figure)
When the reference point return is executed through this section, it is not
able to establish the reference point. Therefore, in case of distance coded
rotary encoder, if the reference point return is started for B point from A
point of below figure, the reference point is not established yet at B point.
The reference point return is re-started for C point. The reference point
return procedure is finished at C point.
a) When the reference point return procedure is executed, the coordinate
value are rounded in 0 to 360 degree, even if Machine coordinate values
are linear axis type.
b) In case of distance coded rotary encoder, only the measurement by three
points or four points is possible. (parameter 1802#2(DC2) is disregarded
as 0.)
