Short Description Position from External Encoder

Description

The PFB0 command returns the actual position, calculated from the position information provided by an external encoder. The position is only derived from an external encoder if the configuration variable EXTPOS is set to 1,2,3. The unit for the position value depends on the PGEARI, PGEARO and ENCIN settings.

PFB0 = Position * PGEARI / PGEARO
whereby:
Position = position value in increments
PGEARI, PGEARO - resolution of position control loop

Note: If the resolution is set to 1 (PGEARI=PGEARO) then the PFB0 command provides internal units (counts).
