How to calculate servo electronic gear ratio?

step1: Set P0-16 = 0

step2: Calculate the number of pulses required for one revolution of the load (A)

for example

PLC send 10000 pulse to servo

Load move 100cm

The moving distance of the load in one rotation:300cm

Then we get A=10000*(300/100)= 30000 pulse/r for load

step3: Determine the encoder resolution (B)

for 2500-line encoder B is 2500

for 17-bit encoder B is 131072

for 23-bit encoder B is 8388608

step4: Determine the reduction ratio (C)

step5: Electronic gear ratio = (A/B)*C

set P0-17(electronic gear molecule) = A*C

set P0-18(electronic gear denominator) = B

Note:

Electronic gear ratio range limit:

2500-line incremental encoder: 0.01~100

17-bit encoder: 0.001~500

23-bit encoder: 0.001~3200
