6.8 "Red zone"
The so-called "red zone" occurs when:
Number of revolutions =
is NOT a power of 2.
When this problem arises, the device must operate within the "red
zone" for a certain number of positions. The size of the "red zone" is
variable. To calculate it we must subtract the
from the Hardware total resolution of the device as many times as
until the difference is less than the the set
When the encoder crosses the limit of the last
thus entering the "red zone", a counting error occurs, i.e. a jump in
the position count. The problem can be represented graphically in the
Figure below.
