SETTING THE SCALE FACTOR
The Encoder mode uses a scale factor to compensate for configurations that differ
from the standard (a measuring wheel with a 1 foot circumference; a 3000 bi-
directional quadrature pulse encoder; and English units of measure). The prescale
value is set at the factory for your equipment and typical unit of measurement.
However, it may occasionally be necessary to adjust the prescale value.
