Homing an axis with MC_Home or LS_Home

MC_Home is used to perform the homing method for a single servo axis. The homing method is configured in the EtherCAT slave’s SDO parameters. LS_Home uses the inputs provided by the user to perform a home operation on a single servo axis.

  • LS_Home does not use the homing method configured in the EtherCAT slave’s SDO parameters.

  • LS_Connect and MC_Power must be executed before either function block can be used to home an axis.

  • The following examples can be found in the XMC_SingleAxis_FBs.zip downloadable from Example Applications.
