Sensor™ THC 

391 

Sensor THC Axis Setups 

The THC Axis screen is designed specifically for use with the Sensor™ THC. 
 

 

 
Note: for proper operation, Sensor THC encoder counts should be approximately 20, 000 counts/ 
inch. 
 
 

Stall Force 

The Stall Force Parameter allows the user to select the amount of Following Error (inches / mm) to be 
used as the motion limit when Homing or performing manual IHS / plate sensing.  Example: If the 
value is set to .1 inches, the THC Axis will continue to move the axis until .1 inches of following error 
has been reached.  This will indicate the Plate location during IHS and will indicate the top of the slide 
during homing. 
 
 

Slide Length 

This parameter is used to specify the overall motion length of the Slide mechanism being used for the 
THC.  This information is used to set the travel limits of the slide after homing. 
 
 

Home  

The Home parameter is used to activate use of the Home feature for the THC Axis.  Depending on 
the Slide mechanism used, the THC may be Homed to Hard Stop, Hard Stop w/ Current Limit or 
Home Switch.
