5.7.2 Use near home sensor/index for homing
Another homing mode is to search “Near Home Sensor” or encoder index signal to determine the home
position. “Near Home Sensor” is set to a digital input in the I/O center and is triggered via an external
switch. After “Near Home Sensor” is found, the encoder index signal can be searched in the left or right
direction for the home position to get the better accuracy.
Homing procedure
Use the setting of initial movement direction (parameter ○
6 ) and initial movement speed (parameter
○
7 ) to search “Near Home Sensor” or index signal.

speed
Slower speed
Search at the lower homing speed. Set it in the
“Slower Speed” field given in figure 5.6.2.
Faster speed
Search at the faster homing speed. Set it in the
“Faster Speed” field given in figure 5.6.2.

Search the near home sensor only.
change to lower speed, move
After the near home sensor is found, change to
search the encoder index signal at the lower
homing speed in the left direction.
change to lower speed, move
After the near home sensor is found, change to
search the encoder index signal at a lower
homing speed in the right direction.
