MC-Basic:axis.HOMEDISTANCEMAX
 | IMPORTANT |
| THIS PROPERTY IS OBSOLETE |
This property specifies the maximum distance that an axis is allowed to travel from the point at which the homing began (in either direction). Exceeding this limit flags an error and causes the homing to stop.
Assigning HDISMAX to -1 causes no maximum distance checking.
Short form
<axis>.HdisMax
Syntax
- Versions 3.0 to 3.1.17: <axis>.HomeDistanceMaximum = <value>
- Versions 3.2 and higher: <axis>.HomeDistanceMax = <value>
Availability
All versions
Type
Double
Range
-1, 0 to MaxDouble
Units
User position units
Default
-1
Scope
Task or Terminal
Limitations
- The accuracy of this limit is dependent on the homing velocity (the higher the speed, the lower the accuracy). Valid in communications phase 2 or higher.
- To set the value within a task, the axis must be attached to that task (using the ATTACH command).
Examples
a1.hdismax = 1000
