10.1 How to Use Home Return
10.1.1 Return to Home Position by a Home Search
Home Search
Over limit switch(+) or Over limit switch(-) when the home position is in between where the table travels
or when the direction of the home return could be in the both directions, so that the Home return in the
both directions will be possible.
Setting the control code Lower the 6th. bit to 1 allows a home position search.
When the near home input is made during acceleration, the table automatically reverses the direction to
check ON near home input and then OFF near home input. Then, the home return operation is
automatically executed.
-When Near home input exists in the direction of home return
The table slows down near the near home and stops at the home position.
-When Near home input does not exist in the direction of home return
① Home return operation starts in the direction specified in the program. The table travels to the
position where Over limit switch(-) is made.
② When Over limit switch(-) is detected, the table reverses the direction. When the near home input
is once turned ON and then OFF, the table slows down and turns around.
