Abstract
A method and an arrangement for performing the method for the error-free conversion of the counting values of a segment counter including Wiegand sensors and the position values of a fine position sensor into a total position value using the last magnetization direction of the Wiegand wire of a segment counter as part of the information for an absolute synchronization of counting and position values. The method further includes detecting a magnetization direction of the Wiegand wire on the basis of a combination of the magnetization direction, the last stored counting value of the segment counter, and information of the fine position sensor about the current.
