Simodrive 611U reference position

(OP)
Hi everyone,

What can cause a servo motor to lose its refernce position?
I ran into a problem when my motor lost its home position. It showed that the slide was at home even though it was sitting in the middle position.
I had to set the reference position again in Simocom U to get it to work.
I opened the motor to see if the belt was loose and it wasn't.
What could happen that made the reference point to be "lost" ?

Thank you,
