16.7.7 Dog type rear end reference home position return
This home position return method depends on the timing of reading DOG
(Proximity dog) that has detected the rear end of a proximity dog. Therefore,
when a home position return is performed at a creep speed of 100 r/min, the
home position has an error of 6400 pulses (for HG series servo motor). The
higher the creep speed, the greater the error of the home position.
Deceleration starts at the front end of a proximity dog. After the rear end is passed, the position is shifted by
the travel distance after proximity dog and the home position shift distance. The position after the shifts is
used as the home position. The home position return is available independently of the Z-phase signal.
Changing the creep speed may change the home position.
