### ENCINIT

triggers the finding index process, whose purpose it is to find the encoder index position with respect to hall switches or initialization process.

ENCINIT is applicable for encoder with index, encoder types 0-2, and 7 (see MENCTYPE). The initialization process requires rotating the motor until the encoder index is found, whereupon the drive will set the value of MENCOFF.

If the drive is enabled and in Opmode 0, the jog command can be used to rotate the motor. When the encoder index is encountered, the drive will set the value of MENCOFF. In this case, the status of the ENCINIT function is observed using the switch variable ENCINITST.
