Gantry_Home
This function block will move all gantry axes in search of home by first seeking one of the limit switches, and
then searching in the other direction for the C channel or index pulse. This block uses the
axes will search simultaneously. This sequence was designed to prevent mechanical interferences with objects
in the work coordinate system during the homing process.
