Abstract
In the installation of a position measuring device it is necessary that parameters such as amplitude and phase position of the analog scanning signals as well as the position of the reference mark signal are tested. In order to accomplish such testing, a control device is provided that has a display field for visually indicating these parameters. A first bar is displayed in the display field and its width represents a measure for the fluctuation range of the radius and its position represents a measure for the average radius of a Lissajous figure. In addition, a marking is displayed for permissible fluctuation in range of this radius. Furthermore, a second bar is displayed in the display field, which indicates the position of the reference mark signal in relation to the analog signals generated by the scanner.
