April 2013 1.5 New functions 35
 Switchable characteristic curve for potentiometers
See changed behavior of MP7620 bits 3 and 4.
 Input for speed encoder of the spindle can be switched
In MP113.0 and MP 113.1 you can now set different inputs for the speed 
encoder of the spindle, even if the PWM output for the spindle drive stays 
the same. The PWM output and the two encoder inputs must be on the 
same drive-control motherboard (DSP) of a CC, however. This means that 
they must be configured on CC connectors with the same letter A or B. 
This may be necessary for applications in which you switch between two 
spindles or spindle motors that are operated with the same UM power 
module.
 Number of multifunction filters has been increased
Another multifunction filter is available with the new machine parameters 
MP2547.x, MP2557.x, MP 2567.x and MP2577.x.
 Switch-on behavior of vertical and rotary axes
If a vertical or rotary axis is switched on, the current that was active at the 
time of switch-off is now used. This is to prevent the axis from sagging 
when the brake is released, even if the feedforward control for the axis is 
not optimally set.
 Protection for the configuration of the Ethernet interfaces
The settings of the non-primary Ethernet interface(s), the selection of the 
primary interface and the DHCP server settings are now password 
protected. This protects the settings from unauthorized changes. The code 
number 807667 or the PLCPASSWORD defined in the OEM.SYS are now 
required for these settings. The code number is entered using the OEM 
authorization button or soft key.
 Different effect of the two DIADUR keys
The meaning of the two DIADUR keys in the lower row of the ASCII 
keyboard on the TE keyboard unit was changed. 
The left key now opens the JH menu (operating system setting) of 
HEROS 5. Within a remote-desktop application, this key functions as a 
Windows key.
The right key switches to a remote-desktop application if the "Remote 
Desktop Manager" software option is enabled. If you happen to be in a 
remote desktop, this key switches to the next remote desktop or back to 
the NC application.
In a remote-desktop application, the screen switchover key now has locally 
the same effect as an F12 key, but you have to use the right Diadur key to 
switch back.
 Spindle override with AFC
If the AFC soft key is set to ON, the spindle potentiometer is fixedly set to 
a factor of 100 % for the Program Run operating modes right from the start 
of cutting.
 Tool change within an AFC cut
If a change to another tool (not replacement tool) takes place within an 
active cut, the error message "Faulty assignment of tool/cut no." is issued 
and an NC stop is initiated.
If AFC detects at the beginning of a cut that the tool and the associated cut 
number do not match, it stops instead of executing an automatic teach-in 
cut (NC stop) and the error message "Faulty assignment of tool/cut no." is 
issued. After NC start has been pressed again, a teach-in cut is carried out 
with the new tool.
In both cases the user can either cancel with internal stop and correct the 
cause of the error message, or continue with the actual data by pressing NC 
start.
