Methods 17 to 30: Homing without an Index Pulse

These methods are similar to methods 1 to 14 except that the home position is not dependent on the index pulse but only dependent on the relevant home or limit switch transitions.

To disable the use of the index signal in methods 1 to 14, simply add 16 to the method number.

For example, to ignore the index signal in methods 3 and 4, methods 19 and 20 are used instead.  The resulting sequence of operations for methods 19 and 20 are illustrated in the following diagram.
