Note
Parameter "MC_Home.Mode"
The "MC_Home.Mode" parameter for S7-1200 Motion Control and S7-1500 Motion Control
has been standardized within the framework of technology version V2.0. This results in a
new assignment of the parameter values for the "MC_Home.Mode" parameter. A
comparison of the "MC_Home.Mode" parameter for technology versions V1.0 and V2.0 is
available in the section Version overview (Page 86).
