  C: Homing direction (search direction) is clockwise toward positive HW limit switch. 
The home switch is not in search direction. The positive limit switch acts as a revers-
ing switch. When the positive limit switch is reached, the direction of rotation is re-
versed, and homing is performed in negative direction. Travel to rising edge of home 
switch is performed at 
Fast Speed 1132. Home position is the first encoder ref. sig-
nal after the home switch is passed. Search for the home position is performed at 
Creep Speed 1133.
