Q.I am using AZ Series EtherNet/IP compatible driver. How can I perform return-to-home?

There are three ways to execute return-to-home. Execute one of the following.

1. How to use the remote operation of Oriental Motor's support software MEXE02
2. How to assign HOME input to direct input
3. How to assign the HOME input to the remote input and use it via communication

In addition, the AZ Series uses a mechanical ABZO sensor, so once the home has been determined, positioning to the home position at high speed using ZHOME input is possible. Please also refer to the following FAQs.
