* Mandatory Home search. When set to YES, every time the
DRO is turned on, it forces a home search. It is recommended
to set it to YES when the DRO uses positioning error
compensation because if the compensated axis is not homed,
the compensation will not be applied.
* Type: It sets the reference system of the linear encoder:
NONE, NORMAL (INCREMENTAL) or DISTANCE-CODED.
When selecting DISTANCE-CODED, you must set the
engraving pitch of the linear encoder (20 µm, 40 µm or 100
µm) and the external multiplying factor (1, 5, 10, 25 or 50).
