# Referencing by homing to fixed stop

Function available as of V3.1.3080.11.

Referencing by motion to fixed stop is a CNC-controlled homing function. The axis is then moved to a fixed stop at reduced velocity and limited torque. After a fixed stop is detected, the actual value of the machine axis is synchronised with the axis coordinate system of the machine and the CNC by means of the actual position sent by the drive and the parameterised reference point.

## Notice

This type of homing is only possible with SERCOS and CANopen drives.

If a different drive type is used, the error ID 110371 is output.

The existing homing to a fixed stop function is supported for DSE drives with one spindle. The parameterisation for this is under “NC-controlled homing to fixed stop with DSE drives”.
