6.1.4 Mode 4
Reference search mode 4 searches the left end switch only, but from both sides so that the middle of the
switch will be found and used as the zero point. This is shown in figure 6.
Add 64 to the mode number (i.e. set axis parameter #193 to 68) to search the right end switch instead.

Refeerence search mode 5 searches the home switch in negative direction. The search direction will be
reversed if the left limit switch is reached. This is shown in figure 7.
Add 128 to the mode number (i.e. set axis parameter #193 to 129) to reverse the polarity of the home
switch input.
