2.5.3 Accuracy and Repeatability
The accuracy is one trajectory update rate. For example - if the trajectory update rate is set to 800 s then the accuracy will be 800 s, if the
trajectory update rate is set to 1.6 ms then the accuracy will be 1.6 ms.
The amount of accuracy the application requires will determine the Home Reference type selected. Homing to an external sensor will only
establish a repeatable home position within 0.04 revolutions at 3000 RPMs (800 sec sensor capture interval).
NOTE
The data above assumes the use of a perfectly repeatable home sensor.
In Sensor then Marker applications, the marker must be at least 800 sec after the rising edge of the sensor input to be considered a valid
marker pulse, see
Figure 10.
NOTE
At 1000 RPM, the motor will travel 0.0133 revolutions (or 4.8°) in 800 sec.
Figure 10: Sensor then Marker Home Reference Position Example 2
The Home Sensor must be “On” for at least 800 sec to guarantee that it will be recognized.

2.5.4 Home Offset
The Home Offset is the distance from the home reference position to the final stopping point at the end of the homing sequence. Regardless of
