Control of stepper motor via X20SM1436-1 and MpAxisBasic: motor is stuck after software update

Hi, I’m using an X20SM1436-1 to control a stepper motor. I use the MpAxisBasic function blocks to enable, power on, home and then move the motor. I have this problem that whenever there is a software update the motor will be stuck and not move at all even thought I would power it off and on again. This goes away only after a PLC restart or if I change the Homing mode temporarely. It seems a problem of the AxisBasic function block but I can’t understand what’s happening

I would say the problem here might be that you don’t download with option ‘Keep PV values‘ checked.
This is recommended for mappMotion. Take into account that you need to initialize your mplink and parameter structure in the cyclic part.
