4.2.8 Entire resolution
The entire resolution is the sum of steps / revolution multiplied by the number of revolutions.
Thus, the domain depends on the setting of steps / revolution.
Formula of calculation for the entire resolution:
Revolutions
X steps / revolution = entire revolution
Example: in case of 100 steps / revolution and a desired number of revolutions of 10,
the entire resolution is 1000.
According to the type of encoder, either the number of revolutions or the entire resolution can
be set. The other value is marked in grey and thus cannot be altered in any way. However, it is
being calculated and displayed.
Info: This resolution may also be applied for movements where the zero point is being crossed
several times in the same direction (continous operation).

displayed in the programming mask. Thus, it can be checked whether the selected and the
existing encoder are identical.
