Abstract: The disclosure relates in particular to a method for parameterizing a system for measuring an absolute position, the system including a permanent magnet, at least one probe that is mobile relative to the magnet over a given path, and a controller providing position information calculated on the basis of the arctangent of the ratio, wherein a correction coefficient G is assigned, between the output signals of the probe, wherein the signals are pseudo-sinusoidal and squared. The method includes an optimization operation that involves selecting the value of the coefficient G that minimizes the errors of the measurement system resulting from the pseudo-sinusoidal character of the signals output from the probe.
