1
Search the left end switch, then search the next encoder index pulse.
2
Search the right end switch, then search the next encoder index pulse.
3
Search the positive edge of the home switch, then search the next encoder index pulse.
5
Search the negative edge of the home switch, then search the next encoder index pulse.
17
Search the left end switch.
18
Search the right end switch.
19
Search the positive edge of the home switch.
21
Search the negative edge of the home switch.
33
Search next index pulse in negative direction.
34
Search next index pulse in positive direction.

The actual position is used as home position. All position values (objects 6062h, 6063h,
and 6064h) are set to zero, but the motor will not move.
