key-in the new data
press the
[TRANSMIT]
key
Important: If a parameter value that is out of range is entered, the error
message “PARAM VALUE OUT OF RANGE” is displayed on row 0
(zero) of the CRT. If an invalid value, such as a float value (decimal
number), is entered where an integer is expected, the error message
“INVALID INPUT VALUE” is displayed in row 0 (zero).

The online home calibration parameters are used to tune the home
calibration value of each axis. Home calibration specifies the distance
from the encoder marker to the desired home position. The control moves
the home calibration distance plus the distance to the encoder marker after
the home limit switch changes from “ON” to “OFF”. Refer to chapter 5
for additional information on home calibration.
Use this procedure to access the online home calibration parameters.
