Chapter 4 - Configuring Impulse with Application Developer

Note: Homing is predicated on the assumption that the system is positioned somewhere between the EOT switches when the home move is invoked. If the system is initially outside the interval between the EOT switches, the homing routine will fail in one of two ways: (1) carriage will be driven against mechanical end-stop. (2) carriage will end up “homed” outside the interval between the EOT switches.

Digital inputs are configurable as EOT (Active High/Active Low) on the Setup > I/O menu. More than one Home move can be specified and stored simultaneously if it serves a purpose.

Input Scan Time - This is the time the drive requires the binary input selection to be stable prior to triggering a move. Its primary purpose is for debouncing inputs. Scan time can be configured from 0 to 19,656 milliseconds.
