Destinations

Home.#.Initiate

The Home.#.Initiate destination is used to initiate the home function. The Home is initiated
on the rising edge of this function. The device will not initiate a Home if there is an Index,
Jog, or Program in progress, or if the Stop destination is active or if a travel limit is active.

Home.#.SensorTrigger

This destination is required to be used if you are homing to a sensor. This destination is edge
sensitive. The home position is determined when the Home Sensor destination is activated.

If the device receives a Home.#.Initiate input while the Home.#.SensorTrigger is active, you
can choose to have the motor “back-off” of the home sensor before it initiates the home
function, or move forward to the next sensor.

If debounce is used on the hardware input that the Home.#.SensorTrigger is assigned to, the
debounce determines the length of time the input must be active to be considered a valid input.
The rising edge of the sensor is still used for the reference position. This maintains accuracy
while providing the ability to ignore false inputs.
