Word Length
The word length refers to the word size to be used with the RS-232-C inter-
face. The MM4005 controller is designed to accept either 7- or 8-bit words.
The factory preset word size is 8 bits.
If the RS-232-C is not used, ignore the selection by pressing the
key

To change the RS-232-C word length from the General Setup menu, press
until the Word Length parameter appears on the display. Press
and then the
key to select a new value. Press the

Axis HOME Sequence
The Axis Home sequence performs a home search cycle on multiple axes.
When a home search routine is invoked, you may execute it on one or all
axes. If you choose to perform a home search on all axes, you may specify
the order in which axis home sequences are executed. For example, the
controller may be configured to first perform a home search on axis num-
ber 3, then on axis number 2, 4 and 1.
To change the Axis Home sequence you must set the priority of each axis.
If, for instance, you want axis number 3 to execute first, you must set its
priority (order) to 1.
To change the order of the home search, from the General Setup menu
press
until the 1st Axis HOME appears on the display. Press
and then enter the desired priority (order) number on the keypad.
Press the
key to accept the entry and return to the previous menu.
