Position reconstruction: Maximum possible number of axes with absolute encoder

Question:
Position reconstruction: Up to what number of axes with absolute encoder is it possible to use the position reconstruction function?

Answer:
For position reconstruction when using an absolute encoder, certain data must be stored in the controller in a power-failure-proof (persistent) manner. Due to the persistent memory available in each case in terms of hardware, this results in a maximum number of axes with absolute value encoder.
The maximum number therefore depends on the type of controller used and its hardware:
  • 3221C:   49 axes 
  • 3231C:   49 axes 
  • 3251C:   49 axes 

  • p300:   130 axes 
  • p500:   130 axes 

  • c300:   130 axes 
  • c520:   130 axes 
  • c550:   130 axes 
  • c750:   130 axes 
Notice:
Up to now, the L_MC1P library has additionally limited the software to 100 axes.
However, this limitation has been eliminated as of L_MC1P V03.22.00 and only the above-mentioned hardware-dependent maximum number of axes is relevant.
