ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE

This means the position valuation from evaluating one unique code information at any point over the entire measuring length.

For this the scanning head needs not to be moved relative to the scale, so that the position value is available immediately after power-on. Reference points and reference drives are thus not required.

The subsequent electronics may access this position value at any time.
