Setting of the homing mode in the technology 
Because the input signal for the homing is part of the information transferred from the motor 
encoder, no further steps are required in the configuration of the drive. 
You can start immediately by activating the "Homing" function in the technology. 
1. To activate the "Homing" function, switch in the S7T Config project navigator to the 
dialog box: "\Technology\Axes\Axis_2\Homing". 
2. In the "Homing" dialog box, set the "Homing mode" to "Encoder zero mark only". 
"Start of homing procedure" specifies the approach direction (counting direction) 
of the encoder zero mark. 
3. Enter meaningful values in the "Approach velocity", "Entry velocity", 
and "Reduced velocity" input boxes. 
This completes the configuring of the technological part of the homing function in 
S7T Config.
