ENERR
The parameter ENERR indicates two kind of errors. If
the magnetic field strength is at low a ’Loss of Mag-
net’ is generated. An ’Excessive Frequency Alarm’ is
generated when the revolution per minute is to high.
Parameter ENERR handles the various error types.

Calculating the position offset
Before iC-MP outputs the actual position via the serial
interface or the linear analog output (LAO), an offset is
added internally. This offset consists of the following
parameters:
OFFSET = OFFSET1 xor OFFSET2 xor OFFSET3
The offset is programmed in several stages (see Fig-
ure 16). It is important that the direction of rotation is
programmed prior to this (MODE Bit 2). To determine
the actual configured offset, all three offset parameters
must be read out. After these parameters have been
xored the actual offset is determined:
Actual Offset = OFFSET1 xor OFFSET2 xor OFFSET3
To calculate the new offset the actual position at the
required offset is required. The formula used to calcu-
late this new offset is as follows:
New Offset = 256 - Actual Position + Actual Offset
