Communication Time-out
This parameter represents the time duration the controller will wait when
expecting an input. It is a general communication parameter that applies to
both RS-232-C and IEEE-488 interfaces.
To change the existing value, from the General Setup menu, press
until the parameter appears on the display. Press
and then enter
the desired value on the keypad. Press the

and return to the previous menu.

2.2.1.6
HOME Time-out
This parameter sets the time duration for which the controller will wait for
each axis to complete a home search routine. Since the controller cannot be
interrupted during a home search, this parameter provides a time-out in case
of malfunction.
Use this parameter with discretion. A small value will cause the controller to
falsely report an error when the stage starts a home search cycle from an
extreme distance and does not have enough time to complete it. A large value
prevents the controller from detecting a real problem, when the home search
cycle takes an excessive amount of time.
An ideal home time-out value is about 20% over the time it takes the slowest
stage installed to perform a home search. The longest time is usually when
the stage starts from the farthest point away from the origin switch.
To change the existing value, from the General Setup menu, press
until the parameter appears on the display. Press
and then enter the
desired value on the keypad. Press the
key to accept the entry and
return to the previous menu.
The default value is 90 seconds.
