CONTREX M-Traverse - Manual (Page 95)

3 - 48
Example of a Center Based Profile with Home Offset.
Home Seek moves the Follower mechanism in the reverse direction, detects the Home
Sync sensor, then ramps down at the Accel/Decel rate (CP-60) to zero. Then the
M–Traverse makes a forward, triangulated move (in the forward direction) to the
“Home” position. The M–Traverse uses Home Sync as the starting point and
determines the “Home” position by subtracting is one-half of the Traverse Length from
Home Offset (CP-31).
