5.6 Encoder parameters
1 Position
This attribute represents the absolute position detected by the
position sensor.
2 Position sensor type
Type of device.
1: Single-turn absolute rotary encoder.
2: Multi-turn absolute rotary encoder.
3 Counting direction
Counting direction. attribute sets the rotation direction of the encoder
shaft and consequently defines whether the position value output by
the encoder increases when the encoder shaft rotates clockwise
(CW) or counterclockwise (CCW). CW and CCW rotations are
viewed from shaft end.
CW: turning the shaft CW the position will increase;
CCW: turning the shaft CCW the position will increase.
