Note
Table parameters containing position information are automatically converted when the
system of units is changed (change from MD10240
$MN_SCALING_SYSTEM_IS_METRIC).
The position information is always interpreted in the current measuring system. Conversion
must be implemented externally.
Automatic conversion of the position data can be configured as follows:
MD10260 $MN_CONVERT_SCALING_SYSTEM = 1
External conversion is no longer necessary.

Example

Sample parameterization of a compensation table:
● Machine axis: X1
● Measuring system: 1
● Starting position: -200 mm
● End position: 600 mm
● Distance between interpolation points: 1 mm
● Number of interpolation points: MD38000 $MA_MM_ENC_COMP_MAX_POINTS = ((600
- -200) / 1) + 1 = 801
The memory requirement in the static user memory is: 801 * 8 Byte = 6408 Byte
