Overview

This chapter describes how the drive controller finds the start position (also called

reference position, home position or zero position). There are different methods to

determine this position. Sometimes the limit switches at the end of the positioning range

are used. In order to increase the reproducibility as much as possible, some methods also

integrate the zero pulse of the angle encoder used (resolver, incremental encoder etc.).

Homing

The user can specify the speed, acceleration and type of homing. The home_offset object

can be used to set the zero position of the drive to any position desired.
The value of the home_offset object is added to the value of the homing point (e.g. limit

switch position).
Two

are

distinguished.

The

search

speed

(speed_during_search_for_switch, 6099_01)is used to find the limit switchor the homing

switch. For an exact position determination of the corresponding switching edge, switch

over to crawl speed (speed_during_search_for_zero, 6099_02).

Note!

With CANopen, travelling to the zero position is usually not part of the homing

run. If the drive controller knows all parameters required (e.g. the position of

the zero pulse), no physical movement is executed.
