11. Operations 
11.1 Return to Origin 
After entering the setting data, it is necessary to perform a return to origin operation (to establish the 
origin point) before starting the positioning or pushing operation. (To ensure the position of origin) 
 
■Return to origin 
The actuator moves in the return to origin direction ( this direction is dependent on the actuator) from 
the initial position at the moment of power-on:    Refer to (1) in the figure below. 
When the actuator reaches the end of travel limit it pauses for a short time. The controller recognizes the 
position as the end of travel limit of the actuator. Then, the actuator moves at a low speed in the direction 
opposite to the return to origin direction:    Refer to (2) in the figure below. 
The position after the travel becomes the origin. 
 
Return to Origin position command → Travels in the set Origin position direction → 
Stops traveling → Reverse travel → Sets the Origin position

11.2 Positioning Operation 
Step data "Pushing force" is set to 0. 
The actuator moves to the target position specified by the step data "Position".
