16.12.9 Count type front end reference home position return
This home position return method depends on the timing of reading DOG
(Proximity dog) that has detected the front 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. The higher the creep speed, the
greater the error of the home position.
After the front end of a proximity dog is detected, when a home position return
ends without reaching the creep speed, [AL. 90.2] occurs. Set the travel distance
after proximity dog and the home position shift distance enough for deceleration
from the home position return speed to the creep speed.
