■ 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)

÷ 250 = 2.

1. The prescale value for the K3HB-C is set using the mantissa X

× exponent Y,

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:
