The empty area (missing teeth) length at the piano tape junction must be included between 1 and 3 teeth. The number of missing teeth must be set to the '''integer part''' of the gap length: in this example (gap of 2.x teeth): 2. See the [[#Quick guide for the operator: what to enter in NVGate|quick guide for the operator]] below.
The empty area (missing teeth) length at the piano tape junction must be included between 1 and 4 teeth.  
 
Note: the total number of teeth includes the missing teeth. By example, an encoder with '''24 pulse/rev''' and '''1 missing teeth''' must be set as :

'''Attention''': The time lap of the first missing pulse must be longer than twice the time lap of the previous pulse interval
 
'''It is recommended to set the instrumentation in order to limit the number of missing pulse below 3s''': Indeed long interval without pulses will lead to a strong order 1 artefact in the instantaneous speed signal due to interpolation of sample. Remaining below 3s for the missing pulse provide correct measurements.

* Near a whole number (g = 1.95, 2.0, 2.05), setting that whole number is correct on both sides; setting the lower whole number fails as soon as the gap exceeds it

* In post-processing, when the ''Tach'' option of Signal Op. is used, check that the ''Missing teeth'' value of the created tachometer (''Tachometer > Ext. tach. 1'') is the same as the Tors one.
