Homing direction
Select the direction in which the next zero mark should be approached for homing. The
following options are available:
●
Positive
Axis moves in the direction of higher position values.
●
Negative
Axis moves in the direction of lower position values.
●

The currently effective approach direction is used for homing.
Home position
In this field, configure the absolute coordinate of the home position. The home position
configured here is in effect when the Motion Control instruction "MC_Home" is executed with
Mode = 10.
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).
