Supervisor Setup

Specifying encoder parameters

Use the encoder screen to specify encoder resolu-

tion, units of measure, count direction and refer-

ence mark type.

Click the Tools/Options/Encoders menu item to

display the Encoders screen.

Specifying encoder resolu-
tion

Enter the resolution specification of the encoders

used with your system into the X, Y and Z Resolu-

tion fields.

Specifying encoder unit of
measure

Check the mm box for metric encoders, or clear the mm box for encoder output values in inches.

Specifying encoder count direction

Check or clear the reverse boxes to achieve the desired DRO count directions.

Specifying encoder reference marks

Highlight the desired reference mark type in the drop-down lists,

and then clear the TTL Ref box for analog reference marks.

Reference offsets

The Reference offsets fields are used by OEM setup personnel and qualified service technicians to move

the location of the system’s machine zero.

CAUTION

The machine zero location must be undisturbed to ensure correct operation and ac-

curate error correction. Do not change to reference offsets values.
