4.4.1.2. Marker Pulse

The MARKER, or INDEX pulse, is used to indicate a reference point within one mechanical

revolution of the motor shaft.

NOTE

The marker pulse is not referenced to the key of the motor shaft or housing.

The pulse is set at an arbitrary position that is determined by the resolver

adjustment setting used for motor commutation. This is a factory setting and

not user adjustable.

The electrical width of the MARKER pulse is selectable in pulse widths of 90°, 180° or

360°, where 360° is the entire width of one A and B encoder cycle. The factory default

configuration is 90° marker width.

The output wave forms for the Encoder Simulator are shown in Figure 4-8.
