7.2 Motion Command Details
7.2.3 Zero Point Return (ZRET)
Starting the Zero Point Return in Region D
1.
The axis travels in the reverse direction at the Approach Speed (setting parameter OL3E).
2.
When the rising edge of the DEC1 signal is detected, the axis decelerates to a stop.
3.
After decelerating to a stop, the axis travels in the forward direction at the Creep Rate (setting parame-
ter OL40).
4.
After the falling edge of the DEC1 signal is detected, the position is latched when the rising edge of the
first phase-C pulse is detected.
5.
The axis moves from the latched position by the distance set in the Zero Point Return Travel Distance
(setting parameter OL42) and stops. The machine coordinate system is established with this final
position as the zero point.
