I am not familiar on how to calculate the stepper motor resolution to operate with multi-turn absolute rotary encoder.
Stepper motor details as follows,
- Total step - 600;
- speed - 160 pps;
- Motor type - Biploar;
- Step mode - 1/8.
Please advise.

Your motor has a total step of 600. It means, for a complete revolution, you have 600 steps. Hence the resolution appears to be 360°/600 = 0.6° per step. This is the resolution in what is called FULL MODE.
However, your motor can works in STEP MODE 1/8. That means that you can move the motor by 1/8 of a step. Hence, you can achieve 8 more steps and thus increase your resolution by 8. In this mode, your actual resolution is 0.6°/8 = 0.075°
