- 
"Coarse" if from optical interupter, "Fine" if from an encoder index
pulse. Home is defined as zero counts.
- 
Primary limits signal the controller to stop motion. Secondary limits
cut motor power and require intervention to move out of them.
- 
Positive (+) motor drive moves the stage to the right (looking from
the front of  the dewar).

NOTES:
Mechanical Drawing(s) Stage: D7356-1
Electronic Drawing(s) EL-3055
Sign conventions are such that a positive motion of the motor turns
the motor in a CW direction as viewed from the drive shaft looking back
into the motor, and will drive the stage towards the forward limit.
