Homing / Return To Standby Point - Delta Electronics HMC Series Manual

2.5 Homing / Return to Standby Point

Please complete homing after the system is started up. This is for ensuring the accuracy
of servo's position. Also, before starting auto-operation or trail run, the arm shall return
to the starting point, which is the standby point for safety concerns. This is why the
system needs to complete [Return to standby point] beforehand.
When carrying out homing or returning to standby point, for a safer operation, users can
use the [Enabling switch] to immediately stop the operation when any safety worries
arise. (See the figure below)
To use [Enabling switch], please go to [System] > [Safety setting] > [Homing/Return to
standby point] and enable the function of [Enabling switch protection]. When the
[Enabling switch] is enabled, homing/ returning to standby point can be carried out.
When [Enabling switch] is disabled, it will immediately stop the action and a pop-up
window will appear. When the function of [Enabling switch protection] is disabled, the
operation will not be controlled by [Enabling switch].
[Enabling Switch] is a 3-position operation switch. See the definitions below:
 Not pressed: Disabled status; Inhibit to operate in manual mode.
 Pressed: Enabled status; Allow users to operate in manual mode.
 Hardly pressed: Disabled status; Inhibit to operate in manual mode.
