Operation

Reference Mark Evaluation

ENC 125

encoders contain internal reference marks, approximately 4"

apart along the length of the encoder. These marks enable you to easily
re-locate your correct position after a power interruption. You relocate
your position, relative to the last established datums, by traversing across
one reference mark on each encoder. You must find a convenient refer-
ence mark on each encoder prior to establishing your datums, and then
use those same marks during the evaluation procedure, after a power in-
terruption, to re-establish your position relative to your datums.

To perform Reference Mark Evaluation:

Move near the appropriate reference mark.

Press and hold the

DECIMAL

key until the decimal points on the

displays start to flash

Move slowly past the reference mark until the readout recalls its
position.

Repeat for each axis.

Radius and Diameter

Pressing the RAD/DIA key lets you view an axis dimension either as a
radius or as a diameter. The RADIUS/DIAMETER parameter in Setup
establishes which axis can be shown with either radius or diameter val-
ues.

Display resolution is affected by the RAD/DIA key.
