Active Home to Torque The Home to Torque Level sequence is a type of homing used when a hard stop is going to be used as the home position, as
in a linear actuator.
Torque Level homing is similar to Home Switch homing, with the exception that the torque level is used instead of the home
switch input. This graphic depicts the Position/Velocity for Torque Level Homing.
Torque Level-Marker homing is similar to Home Switch-Marker homing, with the exception that the torque level is used
instead of the home switch input. This graphic depicts the Position/Velocity for Torque Level-Marker Homing.
