You can make the following additional EPOS settings via function view "Parameterization":
• Pas

• Limitations
• Position monitoring functions

8.6.6.1 Conguring active homing
Overview
With an incremental measuring system, the drive can be homed without requiring a higher-level
control. Active homing can be used to traverse to a home position.
The drive itself controls and monitors the homing cycle. There are 3 homing modes for active
homing.
Requirements
• The drive has been completely created and specied in the device conguration.
• In quick startup step "Connection to the PLC", it is dened that the drive executes the Montion
Control.
• "Positioning" as method of control is dened in quick startup step "Application".
• For activated user management (UMAC):
The function rights for conguring in the quick startup are activated for your user role.
