•  Phase 2: 
Synchronization with zero mark 
After it reaches the BERO, the axis accelerates / decelerates to shutdown 
velocity, and approaches the zero mark derived from the combined settings of 
"zero mark" (after or before BERO) and "Direction of reference point approach" 
(positive or negative.) The PLC synchronizes the axis to the first zero mark 
detected after the BERO is detected in accordance with the configuration. The 
axis position is set to the default value minus the homing position offset value 
defined in "Homing position coordinate" (Mode = 0) or at input parameter 
Position (Mode = 1.) 
You can also monitor the distance an axis travels between the BERO and the 
zero mark by setting the "Max. distance to zero mark" check box. The 
reference point approach is canceled with error if the zero mark is not found 
within the specified distance after the BERO is detected. 
•  Phase 3: 
Reference point approach 
After the zero mark is detected, the axis accelerates / decelerates to approach 
velocity and approaches the homing position. 
If a homing position offset was configured, the axis approaches the homing 
position along the corresponding distance, starting at the synchronization 
position. The traversing direction is determined by the sign of the homing point 
offset value and by the length of the deceleration ramp after zero mark 
detection, if the homing position lies within the deceleration ramp.
