5. HOW TO USE THE PROGRAM
5.4 Home position return mode
5.4.1 Outline of home position return
A home position return is performed to match the command coordinates with the machine coordinates. The
home position return is required every time the input power is on.
This section shows the home position return methods of the servo amplifier. Select the optimum method
according to the configuration and uses of the machine.
This servo amplifier has the home position return automatic retract function. When the machine stops
beyond or on a proximity dog, this function automatically moves the machine back to the proper position to
perform the home position return. Manual operation with JOG operation, etc. is unnecessary.
POINT
Before performing the home position return, make sure that the limit switch
operates.
Check the home position return direction. An incorrect setting will cause a
reverse running.
Check the proximity dog input polarity. Otherwise, it may cause an unexpected
operation.
