Configuring Return Home

About Return Home

You can configure the Return Home button to make it easier to return your actuators to a default or starting
position. When the hydraulics are active, clicking the Return Home button returns the actuator to the defined
home position.

Note:

The Return Home button is not available while a test is running. When you click Return Home, the Run
indicator on the Basic TestWare display blinks.

Note:

If one or more of the channels is saturated when you click Return Home, a window appears that allows
you to override the saturation detectors. Allowing the override causes the command to step to 110%
of full scale and ramp to the defined end level in the defined time interval.
