This deviation can be characterized by correlating precise, external axis position measurements (where did the axis actually end up) with intended axis positions.</p> <p>We’ve seen confusion around terminology and conventions with this process. Recent improvements to the Automation Studio Help (i.e. AS 4.10 vs AS 4.5), the addition of more modes, and having explicit formulas included has clarified usage.</p>
