    Hello Dears.
    I am using SDP_COE as generic DSP402 axis drive..
    PLC: HCQ0-1200-D
    when activating MC_Home FB to start a new homing sequence at the drive , at the fist activation it works just fine bu at the second activation of the same function block it start and ends pretty soon befor even starting a new actual homing sequence at the drive . and tells me the homing is done without even starting it ..
    at the third activation it works just fine , while at the fouth activation it is not..
    it seems that the homing_done result is not cleared before starting a new homing sequnce , so the second homing is done and finished right after the second activation..
    any idea how to solve this proble

    Hello,
    You can check the information from below link.
    Especially see "Advanced Configuration" section.
    https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20SoftMotion/_sm_cmd_add_softmotion_cia402_axis.html

    try with following ones and observe the result.
    " _uiHomingMinCycles = 10 "
    " _bDoHaltWhenStopInterruptsHome = FALSE "

    Regards,

      thanks alot for the apreciated support..
      " _uiHomingMinCycles = 10 " solved the problem ..it seems that the homing was being acknowledged before it is event started.
      but how can I set a startup value for this parameter ? so I dont have to set it at each startup

    You're welcome.

    No need to set it on every startup. Just change this value from Device Editor.
