The normal homing operation (JOG HOME) in the ACR controllers assumes the axis has two End of Travel (EOT) limits and one home sensor. For axes with only end of travel limits sensors, the following code can be used. Note that the Local Variable LV0 is used for axis number.
Bits used in this code
Jog Active BIT792
Positive EOT Limit Current State BIT 16128
Negative EOT Limit Current State BIT16129
Positive EOT Limit Encountered BIT 16132
Negative EOT Limit Encountered BIT 16133
(Add 32 x the axis number to find the correct bits beyond axis0)
