The modulo is applicable with an infinite machine when position measurement moves between 0 and modulo.

For the Max Modulo parameter you must enter the modulo value in encoder points. The equivalent in user units is displayed automatically in the following field.

Max. Modulo thus defines the hi limit authorized for the adjustable Modulo parameter. The values which can be entered for Modulo and the associated parameters depend on the encoder type used.

The modulo is always a power of 2 because it is defined by the number of data bits from the SSI Frame encoder. Thus, rather than entering the number of modulo bits, you must enter the corresponding power of 2.

For example, for a max modulo of 4096, you must enter the value 12 (because 4096 = 212).
