9.4.3  Methods 3 and 4: Homing on the positive home 
switch and index pulse 
Using methods 3 or 4, the initial direction of movement is dependent on the state of the 
home switch. The home position is at the index pulse to either the left or right of the pint 
where the home switch changes state. If the initial position is sited so that the direction of 
movement must reverse during homing, the point at which the reversal takes place is 
anywhere after a change of state of the home switch.

9.4.4  Methods 5 and 6: Homing on the negative home 
switch and index pulse 
Using methods 5 or 6, the initial direction of movement is dependent on the state of the 
home switch. The home position is at the index pulse to either the left or the right of the 
point where the home switch changes state. If the initial position is sited so that the 
direction of movement must reverse during homing, the point at which the reversal takes 
place is anywhere after a change of state of the home switch.
