NC-controlled homing to fixed stop with DSE drives

In order to use this referencing method, the axis parameter P-AXIS-00299 (kenngr.homing.homing_type) must be parameterised with the value TORQ.

This referencing method is implemented for the following drive interfaces (see P-AXIS-00020):

Other general parameters must be assigned values to define how homing is to run with motion to a fixed stop. They are In the axis list, they are indicated by the prefix kenngr.homing. prefix; see table:
