Set fixed speed for finding home!

Hi, I am using a 7344 card. Right now in my program @ certain times/conditions i have moving @ certain speed. How can i use the find home function to move at a fixed speed when i call it to search for home because i saw that it moves @ different speed when it search for home or perhaps it follows the speed of the last movement?
Thanks

Hi Becks,

Find Home will use the previously loaded values for acceleration, velocity, and s-curve for the initial search. The finer part of finding home (when it looks for a particular edge) is done at a fixed low-speed at approximately 1/4 RPS.

If you want to find home to always run at a fixed speed, you will need to load new values for velocity and acceleration before executing Find Home.

Hope this helps.
