Homing

8.6 Homing
The measuring system in the machine is selected by means of homing and the 0 position
is set within the possible physical travel range:
[8-17] Homing (selection of 0 position)
The zero position (home) can be defined by a reference run or by setting a home position:
 If a reference run is carried out, the drive follows a previously selected path to find the
home position.
 When the reference is set, it is selected manually when the drive stands still.

Danger!
During homing, specially assigned profile parameters are active. If they have not
been set correctly, the drive can engage in uncontrolled movement!

Tip!
A reference run is mainly used for systems with feedback via encoders, resolvers, or
single-turn absolute value encoders, as in the case of these systems the home
position is lost when the supply voltage is switched off.
Usually the reference is set only once during commissioning or in the event of
service (e. g. if drive components are replaced), and it is mostly used for systems
with feedback via absolute value encoders.

Note!
Currently, the 8400 HighLine controller only supports the evaluation of
incremental signals (encoder). The home position is always deleted after mains
switching.
