This homing phase is used to search initially for the system mechanical stop, then for the system "switch"
type stop as follows:
- First configure the switch polarity: «
High state active
" or "
Low state active
".
- Depending on the "END1" stop position (on the right or left), the user selects the appropriate "
Direction of
rotation
»
and sets a "
Homing Speed
".
- When the application torque increases to more than the "
Homing Torque
", the "END1" mechanical stop is
detected, the motor is in the "
mechanical zero
" position.
- To avoid the motor coming into contact with the "END1" mechanical stop each time it returns to the
reference position, "
Offset 1
"
can be set (in encoder pulses) which gives us the difference in position
between the "
mechanical zero
" and the "
software zero
".
- The motor then travels in the opposite direction to find the 2nd stop "Switch 2".
- When the switch changes state, the 2nd stop "Switch 2" is detected, the motor is in the "
mechanical end
"
position.
- To avoid the motor coming into contact with the "Switch 2" stop each time it returns to the reference
position, "
Offset 2
"
can be set (in encoder pulses) which gives us the difference in position between the
"
mechanical end
" and the "
total stroke
".
- After detecting both stops, the motor positions itself at (Switch 2 – offset 2): the homing phase is complete.
- As a safety measure, if the homing phase is not complete after the "
Max Homing Time
", the motor detects
a "Homing" type error and stops.
