Epsilon EP-I Indexing Drive and FM-2 Indexing Module Reference Manual

This view allows you to enable and define the home function.

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

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’.

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

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

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.

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

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.
