home position return again with creep speed and the first zero point after
proximity dog ON is home position in this method.

with the home position return speed.
3) If the zero point is passed by the proximity
dog OFF, a deceleration stop is made.
4) After a deceleration stop, it travels to
direction of home position return with the
creep speed, the home position return ends
with first zero point after the proximity dog
ON.
