Homing mode
The reference (e.g. zero position of the drive axis in the machine measuring system) can be
defined by reference search or reference setting.
In the event of a reference search, the drive travels according to the defined homing
mode to detect the reference in the measuring system independently.
During reference setting, the motor can be homed manually also when the motor is at
standstill. The measuring system is set according to the reference position
Tip!
A reference search is mainly used for continuously running systems, or if the
traversing range or machine cycle of the drive cannot be represented in the display
area of the encoder, e.g. if incremental encoders are used at the motor, or
singleturn absolute value encoders or resolvers are used at the gearbox.
A reference is mainly set in systems/machines that bear the risk of collisions, or
every time homing cannot be executed (e.g. in the case of a cross cutter having
material in the machine).
Definition of the homing mode
The homing modes of the "Homing" basic function are supported 1:1.
The homing modes are selected via the 0x55AF (Lenze code C02640) manufacturer-
specific object.
Alternatively, all CiA402 homing methods are supported. The homing modes are
specified via the object
(homing method).
A detailed process description of the CiA402 homing methods can be found in the
chapter "
