The

1. Obtain the tolerance of the sensor from the manufacturer's specs, and
then calculate the worst case difference between the two channels. Next
determine the difference between the worst case and the ideal, ABS

Setup for CAN Sensor input

Note: The steer motor should not respond to this command input because the
Interlock is Off. If the steer motor shows any movement (or if the Interlock is
On), stop and resolve the issue; see Preparation for commissioning, page 74.
a. Decide if the sensor input will be in absolute position mode or relative posi-
tion mode, and then follow Step "b" or "c" as appropriate.
Absolute Mode = On is for absolute position mode. The sensor input
typically has a range of motion that matches the range of motion of the
steered wheel (not multi-turn) and the center, right, and left positions are
all defined. Absolute position mode is typically used for walkie and walkie
rider material handling applications.
