Zusammenfassung:A method of homing a drive input of a robotic surgical tool includes recording and storing a home position of the drive input in a memory included in the robotic surgical tool, establishing a slow zone for the drive input encompassing a known angular magnitude away from the home position, storing the slow zone in the memory, rotating the drive input toward the home position, and slowing a rotation speed of the drive input upon reaching the slow zone.
