Register for actual position


DT-Europe

Recommended Posts

Which register to use to know the actual position of motor? When we perfom a homing of a motor, the position window of IDE is showing zero, but the different registers that we tested: Motor[1].ActPos Motor[1].DesPos Motor[1].Pos Motor[1].Pos2 are showing a different value than zero. The value showned by the above registers seemS to be the Motor[1].HomePos register. So, do we have always to substact the Motor[1].HomePos value to know the actual or desired position of a motor?
