Axis parameters
6.4 Axis parameters
AXISTYPE (P0)
It sets the type of axis and whether it is governed by the CNC or by the PLC.
DFORMAT (P1)
Indicates the work units (radius or diameter) and the display format used for the axis.
GANTRY (P2)
Indicates, if it is a Gantry axis, which axis is this one associated with. This parameter is to be set
only on the slaved axis according to the following code.
Several Gantry pairs are allowed. The position of the Gantry axis is displayed next to its associated
axis unless machine parameter "DFORMAT(P1)=3".
Value Meaning
0 Normal linear axis.
1 Rapid positioning linear axis (G00).
2 Normal rotary axis.
3 Rapid positioning rotary axis (G00).
4 Rotary axis with Hirth toothing (positioning in whole degrees).
5 Normal linear axis commanded from the PLC.
6 Rapid positioning linear axis (G00) commanded from the PLC.
7 Normal rotary axis commanded from the PLC.
8 Rapid positioning rotary axis (G00) commanded from the PLC.
9 Rotary axis with Hirth toothing (positioning in whole degrees) commanded from the PLC.
Default value: 0
By default, rotary axes are Rollover and are displayed between 0º and 359.9999º. If rollover is not
desired, set axis parameter ROLLOVER (P55)=NO. The axis position will be displayed in degrees.
Positioning-only and/or Hirth axes follow the shortest path when programmed in absolute (G90). In
other words, if its current position is 10º, and its target position is 350º, the axis will go through, 10º,
9º, ... 352, 351, 350.
See "7.1 Axes and coordinate systems" on page 291.
