Setting Position to Zero

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a system that is controlling several stepper motors via network variables and I need to be able move the motors and then zero each axis position so that can use the new zero as the "home". I have tried just writing to the position variable but it did not stick. is there a method to do what I need? I do not have any encoders on the system just counting the steps.

Are you able to use the "Reset Position" Express VI? (Assuming you're using SoftMotion Axes).
