Position encoder
test
The integrated diagnostic functions and DriveDiag also feature a simple position encoder test:
Calling the screen --> See ”DriveDiag” on page 9 – 91.
The signal quality is evaluated at the current position of the scanning head.
This test can be run with a stationary or traversing axis.
If the axis is stationary, the measuring points are at a fixed place; if it rotates, they are arranged
on a circle. The measuring points must be located between the two green tolerance circles.
