■ What Is Prescaling?
Prescaling converts the count value to any numeric value.
To display @@@@.@ mm in a system that outputs 250 pulses for a 0.5-m feed,
the length per pulse = 500 mm (0.5 m)
1. The prescale value for the K3HB-C is set using the mantissa X
so the prescale value = 2.0000 × 10°,
X = 2.000, and Y = 00.
2. Next, set the decimal point position for one digit to the right of the decimal point:
0.5 m
250 = 2.
