Teaching A New Zero Position On The AKD-P Motion Tasking Drive

This application note applies to the AKD Motion Tasking drive in the case where the motor to load is direct drive and the position of the load is always between 0 to 360 degrees. This is typical in rotary dials/indexing tables. Sometimes the objective is to have the zero position to be set in a position different from the zero angle of the motor/feedback. This application describes the steps taken to define a new "zero" position.
