LS

When the home type is LS, the axis will search for the limit switch in the homing direction. After detecting the limit switch, the axis stops and reverses direction to search for the falling edge of the limit switch. The axis feedback position on the cycle that the falling edge of the limit switch was found becomes the home position.

If the limit switch is on at the beginning of homing, the axis will reverse to find the falling edge of the limit switch (see Limit Switch is Initially On).

Homing can still be completed even if the LS Type parameter is set to None.
