B) zero signal method – Yaskawa MP2000 User Manual

TECHNICAL NOTE
(b) ZERO signal method
The movement starts at the approach speed in the direction specified by the parameter. Speed
is decelerated to the creep speed at the rising edge of the ZERO signal and finishes positioning.
The machine coordinate system is established with the position to be the HOME.
The amount of the movement from the ZERO signal is set in the final travel distance of homing.
When the OT signal is detected while in homing process, it becomes OT alarm.

Approach speed Approach speed in count/second.
0-Max speed (ML3**12)
CRPSPD
Creep rate
Creep speed in count/second.
0-Max speed (ML3**12)
OFFSET
Offset value
Final moving distance. And the position will
be this value. If the value is positive, the
final moving is in the same direction of
homing. If it is negative the final moving will
be in the opposite of homing
