Motion sequence
The motion occurs in the following sequence:
1.
Start of active homing via the Motion Control instruction "MC_Home"
2.
Move to the homing mark in the homing direction with the homing velocity
3.
Detection of the homing mark
When the homing mark is detected, the position of the axis or encoder is set depending
on the configured mode:
–
Parameter "Mode" to "MC_Home" = 3
Position = value in parameter "Position" minus
<TO>.Sensor[n].ActiveHoming.HomePositionOffset
–
Parameter "Mode" to "MC_Home" = 5
Position = value in the tag <TO>.Homing.HomePosition minus
<TO>.Sensor[n].ActiveHoming.HomePositionOffset
Note
Parameter "MC_Home.Mode"
The "MC_Home.Mode" parameter for S7-1200 Motion Control and S7-1500 Motion
Control has been standardized within the framework of technology version V2.0. This
results in a new assignment of the parameter values for the "MC_Home.Mode"
parameter. A comparison of the "MC_Home.Mode" parameter for technology versions
V1.0 and V2.0 is available in the section Version overview (Page 86).
4.
Approach to the home position
–
Parameter "Mode" to "MC_Home" = 3
The axis moves to the position that is specified in the "Position" parameter.
–
Parameter "Mode" to "MC_Home" = 5
The axis moves to the position that is specified in the <TO>.Homing.HomePosition
tag.
