[Function] Perform home return of the axes specified by the axis pattern in operand 1.
The servo of each home-return axis will turn ON automatically.
The output will turn OFF at the start of home return, and turn ON when the home return is
completed.
(Note)
Following a pause of home return, the operation will resume from the beginning of the home-
return sequence.

MOVP command instead of a HOME command, if you wish to perform home return for the
