i think the reported values from the IC Haus chip can be looked at with 
his setup.

but the actual sinuses from the Heidenhain scale are _not_ observed by 
his setup.

some interpreted ( interpolated) values are returned from the setup in 
the video.

from the video, i would not infer an error in the sinus,
but thats just IMO

i would verify the sinus periodicty
and i'd ask Heidenhain to check the scale.

Can this user hand the encoder over to some local Heidenhain service 
center?

Heidenhain has the ability to prove their certificate's claim
They have these tools and are very interested in making sure their 
products live up to their reputation.

the test rig would be something like this...
An oscilloscope can show if the sinus is of an even period.
A device can move the reader head colinear with the scale.
The displacement at a contant velocity should result in a pair of 
sinuses that are clean and repeatable ( for time, distance and amplitude )

so, please eliminate any suspicion of the scale itself,
then, if the scale sinus periodicity is correct,
move onto the subsequent electronics
(the interface and the IC Haus interpolator )
