5.1.7 Physical impulses
This parameter is evaluated if the reference for
the „desired measuring units“ is „physical
impulses“ (cp. 5.1.3).
With the „physical impulses“ it is possible to set
a gearing factor freely. The user defines the
output steps („desired measuring steps”) over
a part of the measuring range. This option is
helpful to program scaling factors that result in
a non-integer number of steps over 1
revolution.
Example:
Problem: The position value has to increase by
400 steps over 3 revolutions.
With the reference „steps per revolution“ it is
impossible to program that scaling factor (it
would be necessary to set the parameter
„desired measuring steps“ to 133.33; this is not
possible because the parameter must be an
integer value).
Solution:
Choose „physical impulses“ as reference for
the „desired measuring units“.
Now the number of physical measuring steps
over the desired measuring range is
determined. For this the actual (physical)
