6. SERVO MOTOR DRIVING
6 - 26
(e) Method -6 and -38 (dog type rear end reference home position return)
POINT
This home position return type depends on the timing of reading DOG (Proximity
dog) that has detected the rear end of the proximity dog. Therefore, when the
creep speed is set to 100 r/min and a home position return is performed, the
home position has an error of ± (Encoder resolution) × 100/65536 [pulse]. The
higher the creep speed, the greater the error of the home position.
The following figure shows the operation of Homing method -6. The operation direction of Homing
method -38 is opposite to that of Homing method -6.

Note. After the front end of the proximity dog is detected, if the rear end of the proximity dog is detected without reaching the creep
speed, [AL. 90] occurs. Revise the length of the proximity dog or revise both the home position return speed and creep speed.
