Relation between position resolution ∆l and overall accuracy
Positioning accuracy of machine is the sum of electrical errors and mechanical errors. Normally, provisions
should be made so that positioning accuracy are not affected by electrical system errors. As a guideline,
Equation 5.3 should be satisfied.

App. 5.3 Speed and command pulse frequency
The servo motor is run at a speed where the command pulses and feedback pulses are equivalent.
Therefore, the command pulse frequency and feedback pulse frequency are equivalent. The following shows
the relation including the parameter settings (CMX and CDV). (Refer to the following diagram.)
