Marker
Selecting Marker means the rising edge of the motor’s encoder marker channel is used to establish the reference position.
Figure 9: Marker Home Reference Position
Sensor then Marker
Selecting Sensor then Marker means the reference position is established using the first marker rising edge after the device
sees the rising edge of the Home Sensor input function.

Accuracy and Repeatability
The accuracy is one trajectory update rate. For example - if the trajectory update rate is set to 800 µs then the accuracy will
be 800 µs, if the trajectory update rate is set to 1.6 ms then the accuracy will be 1.6 ms.
The amount of accuracy the application requires will determine the Home Reference type selected. Homing to an external
sensor will only establish a repeatable home position within 0.04 revolutions at 3000 RPMs (800 µsec sensor capture
interval).
Note
The data above assumes the use of a perfectly repeatable home sensor.
In Sensor then Marker applications, the marker must be at least 800 µsec after the rising edge of the sensor input to be
considered a valid marker pulse, see Figure 11.
Note
At 1000 RPM, the motor will travel 0.0133 revolutions (or 4.8°) in 800 µsec.
