AXIS#.SAFEPARAM.ABSOLUTEPOSRANGE

Description

Indicates the absolute position range presented to the user. The range can be composed of unsigned values or signed values. This is only usable when a safe encoder is configured in the safety parameters and when the absolute position support is enabled (see AXIS#.SAFEPARAM.ABSOLUTEPOSEN). The SMM does not extend the position by adding software multi-turn bits. The size of the range is fixed and directly related to the encoder's number of multi-turn bits. The SMM will simply rollover the position if the encoders move outside of the pre-defined range.

Example:

If the encoder has 12 multi-turn bits then the range of absolute position multi-turn bits will be:

  • Unsigned: [0,+4095]
  • Signed: [-2048,+2047]

You can choose the homing value inside the range using AXIS#.SAFEPARAM.ABSOLUTEPOSRESETVALUE.
