The At-Home Output activates in response to the At-Home Band parameter.
At-Home Band (CP-30)
When the Follower is within the At-Home Band, the At-Home Output
will be activated. The At-Home Band (CP-30) parameter allows for a
certain amount of “range” in the Home position, measured in encoder
lines. Although the Home Set input places home exactly at “0”, the At-
Home Band (CP-30) allows home to be located in a band that is mea-
sured in negative and positive encoder lines on each side of the "0"
mark. The desired number of encoder lines is entered in CP-30.
NOTE: The Follower must be within the At-Home Band before “Run”
is entered. The Follower position must also be within the At-Home band
to activate the front panel At-Home LED indicator and the At-Home
discrete output.
The factory default for the At-Home Band Control Parameter is found in Table 3-30. To
modify the default parameter refer to Table 3-31. If you are uncertain how to enter a
Control Parameter, review the
Operations: Keypad section.
