Ah, OK !
in normal mode, the postion go to zero erery spindle turn if the index pulse is true.
In synchronized mode "motion" prevent this with the spindle-index-enable signal and start sync motion if the index is true, seen by the index-enable go false.
OK, thank you, that was the information, that I need.

Not exactly.
In normal mode the encoder counts without limit.
at the beginning of a spindle synchronised movement the encoder is zeroed to index once, then counts without limit.
Lathe spindle with servo drive and syncron motion, without external encoder.
I configure the servodrive for a value of 1.000 for each spindle turn. The decimal place increase from 0.000 to 0.999 and go back to 0.000. This is the trigger to generate the index signal.

FUNCTION(_)
{
int turns = (int)servopos;
new_decimal_place = servopos - turns;
diff_decimal_place = new_decimal_place - old_decimal_place;
if ((diff_decimal_place > 0.7) || (diff_decimal_place < -0.7))
index = 1;
else
index = 0;
if(index_enable && index)
{
offset = turns;
index_enable = 0;
}
spindlepos = servopos - offset;
old_decimal_place = new_decimal_place;
}
could you get it to count the index's then you could use it say on a rotary table and turn the exact revs back to zero
or for argument turn the spindle 20 times and then back etc ..
very useful depending on how accurate you can get it counting ,i would have thought
Yes, it has a jitter, depend on spindle speed and speed of servo thread.
More speed of servo-thread and lower spindle speed will be better.
You should note nyquist-shannon.
But, I think, the encoder-index solution has also a jitter.
