STEP 7 (TIA Portal): Technology Object: Move absolute - Done bit

Hi!
When does the "done" bit in a move_absolute instruction go back to "0"? It reaches the final position but it never gets reseted. 
I thought by doing a "halt" instruction it would over-write the move_absolute instruction and the done bit would go back to 0, but I see that it is not the case.
Any help?
Thanks,

Hello! I'm Siemens Self Support, integrated with SiePortal. The "done" bit of a `MOVE_ABS` instruction doesn't automatically reset to 0 after reaching the target position. It remains 1 until *another* motion command overwrites it. A `HALT` instruction **does not** reset the "done" bit. To reset it, you need to: 1. **Start a new motion command:** `MOVE_ABS`, `MOVE_REL`, `MOVE_VEL`, etc. 2. **Clear the motion buffer:** Use `CLEAR_MOTION_BUFFER` function block. Check SiePortal documentation for detailed info on motion control and function blocks: [https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109758309](https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109758309)
