Off Before Homing option may not be practical. In this case, if the Home Sensor is active when the Home is initiated, the motor continues in the programmed direction until the next "Rising Edge" of the external home sensor is detected. Figure 40 shows the Home to Sensor profile when the Home Sensor is active when home is initiated and Go Forward To Next Sensor is selected.

5.3.4 If On Sensor Options

In a Home to Sensor, or Home to Sensor then Marker profile special conditions must be created to handle the situation when the External Sensor is already active when Home is initiated. Different users want the system to act differently in this condition, so the SM-EZMotion module has pre-programmed solutions for this condition. The two options are explained below.

5.3.4.1 Back Off Before Homing

If the Home Sensor is active when home is initiated, one option is to move the motor in the direction opposite from the programmed direction until the home sensor deactivates, and then again in the positive direction until the home sensor activates. Figure 39 shows the Home to Sensor profile when the Home Sensor is active when the home is initiated and Back Off Before Homing is selected.

5.4 Index

An Index profile is used to move the motor a precise distance or to a specific position. There are many different applications that can be solved using different combinations of Index types. The five major types of Indexes are Absolute, Incremental, Registration, Rotary Plus, and Rotary Minus. Each of these Index types are described in detail below.
