[The setting method of parameter No.1883]
When the measurement of a parameter No.1883 (Distance between scale zero and reference position) is
difficult, you can determine the setting value by the following procedure.
(1)Set "1" to parameter No.1815#2,#1 to make this function available.
Set a correct value to parameter No.1821, No.1882.
Set "0" to parameter No.1240.
Set "0" to parameter No.1883,1884.
(2)Establish a reference point by the procedure described in "Procedure for reference position
establishment". (As a result, the machine coordinate becomes the distance between scale zero and
actual position.)
(3)Positioning the axis to reference position by mechanical measurement in "HND" or "JOG" mode.
(4)Set an actual machine coordinate value to the parameter No.1883 after conversion of least command
increment to detection unit.
(5)Set a parameter No.1240 if necessary.
(Note) When the setting value is greater than 999,999,999, this method can not be used.

[ Example of parameter setting ]
When IS-B and millimeter machine and using a scale figured below :
Parameter No.1821 (Mark1 interval) = 20000
No.1882 (Mark2 interval) = 20020
No.1883 (Reference position) = Position of point A+5.000
= (Distance of A to B) / ( Mark2 interval - Mark1 interval)
* Mark1 interval +5000
= 9960/ (20020 – 20000) * 20000+5000
= 9965000
= -9965000 (Reference point is located in minus side)
