Home Type

The Home Type parameter determines the type of home, Standard Home or One Side Home.

Home Reference

The Home Reference parameter determines how the reference position is calculated. When Standard Home Type is selected the parameter can have one of three different values: ‘Sensor’, ‘Marker’, or ‘Sensor and Marker’. When One Side Home Type is selected the parameter value is ’Senor’.

Sensor

When the Home Reference is ‘Sensor’ the active going edge of the ‘Home Sensor’ input function is used to establish the reference position.

Marker

When the Home Reference is ‘Marker’ the rising edge of the motor encoder’s marker channel is used to establish the reference position.

Sensor and Marker

When the Home Reference is ‘Sensor and Marker’ the reference position is established using the first marker rising edge after the Home Sensor input function goes active.

Chain to Index

When the check box is selected, the device will then start the index shown in the text box after the home cycle is complete.

Velocity

This parameter specifies the velocity used for homing. Use a positive value to make the drive home in the positive direction and a negative value to make the drive home in the negative direction. The velocity units are defined by the Time Scale parameter on the User Units view.
