Mechanical movement distance outside the software limit switches (P-AXIS-00459)
P-AXIS-00459 | Mechanical movement distance outside the software limit switches | |
Description | This parameter specifies the mechanical axis motion path beyond the software limit switches. It defines the mechanical axis motion path together with the position of the limit switches. This value is used to process an absolute encoder overflow automatically: If the position calculated from the absolute position of the drive and the set position offset lies outside of the mechanical motion range of the axis, it is assumed that an overflow of the absolute encoder occurred. To compensate for this overflow, the calculated position is corrected by the value range of the absolute encoder. The position offset is set by P-AXIS-00403 (abs_pos_offset); for PROFIDRIVE drives, it is set by P-AXIS-00341 (read_abs_pos_offset). | |
