7.3.2 Homing Operation
Homing is carried out to set the origin of the machine after the power is applied. Since homing is performed in the servo drive, homing
methods may vary depending on servo drive manufacturers. In motion control module, the completion of homing command and error
situation is monitored, and the position of the origin after homing is applied to control.
(1) Command condition
(2) Axis connection status
(3) Axis error/
warning status
(4) Axis servo-on status
(5) Axis operation status
(6) 1/2 Axis homing command
(7) Homing command input variables
- Command axis
- Position value after homing
- Buffer mode
(8) Homing command output variables
- Homing completed
- Function block in execution
- Function block axis control in operation
- Error occurrence state
- Error number
(1) Command condition
: It is a condition to make the axis perform homing operation.
(2) Axis connection state flag
: In case the axis to be operated is connected to motion control module, and EtherCAT communication with motion control
module is normally performed, it is On.
