2. Determine the reference unit used.
A reference unit is the minimum position data unit used to move a load
(minimum unit of reference from the host controller).
Reference unit: 0.001 mm
Determine the reference unit according to
equipment specifications and positioning accuracy.
To move a table in 0.001 mm units
Examples (in mm):
• Reference unit can be 0.1 in or 0.01 in or 0.01 mm or 0.001 mm,
etc. A reference unit of one pulse moves the load by one reference
unit.
• When the reference unit is 1µm
If a reference of 50000 units is input, the load moves 50 mm (1.97
in) (50000
⋅ 0.001 mm = 50 mm).
3. Determine the travel distance per load shaft revolution in reference
units.
