6.1 Control loops
6.1.1 Selecting the axes
With MP10 you define which machine axes are to be operable.
The bits may be changed during the run-time without a control reset.
However, the bits to be changed must have been set before the control was
switched on.
Changing bits that had not been set leads to a control reset.
MP10 Active axes
Format: %xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Input: Bits 0 to 17 represent axes 1 to 18
0: Axis not active

Screen display You can define how the axes are shown on the screen:
In MP100.x, assign a designation to each logical axis.
Define in MP7291.x the screen line in which the axis is to be displayed.
Rules for the display:
NC axes are designated with uppercase letters.
PLC axes are designated with lowercase letters.
Axes that are not present are given a hyphen "-".
