Position Setting

Description

By means of position setting, the actual position of the motor is set to the position value in parameter HMp_home. This also defines the zero point.

Position setting is only possible when the motor is at a standstill. Any active position deviation remains active and can still be compensated for by the position controller after position setting.

Example

Movement by 4000 user-defined units with position setting

G-SE-0055572.1.gif-high.gif

 

1   The motor is positioned by 2000 user-defined units.

2   By means of position setting to 0, the actual position of the motor is set to position value 0 which, at the same time, defines a new zero point.

3   When a new movement by 2000 user-defined units is triggered, the new target position is 2000 user-defined units.
