7.12.8 Activating gantry axes
The fundamental configuration of gantry axes and axes with master-slave
torque control is made with the machine parameters in CfgAxisCoupling, see
"Synchronized Axes (Option 24)" on page 764
The MANUALplus 620 includes prepared configuration data for a gantry axis
G1. To activate the gantry axis G1, the configuration data must be installed and
the configuration parameters must be modified as described below.
Installing the
configuration data
Proceed as follows to install the configuration data:
Switch to the Organization mode of operation.
Press the soft key.
Enter the code number 95148.
Press the COPY SAMPLE FILES soft key to copy the prepared configuration
data to the OEM:\Update\v\bck\para directory.
Copy the configuration data to the TNC:\bck\para directory.
Switch to the Transfer mode of operation.
Press the Parameter soft key and select the corresponding
MpGantryAxis_AddOn.zip.
Press the Parameter Restore soft key to install the GantryAxis_AddOn.zip
on the control. The complete GantryAxis_AddOnFull.zip should only be
used for newly installed systems because it also overwrites existing
settings.
In addition, the machine parameters must be modified as described below:
The number of slave axes in master-slave torque control and gantry
combinations is restricted by the controller unit on which the master axis is
configured. The slave axes and the master axis must be configured on the
same drive-control motherboard (DSPs). Thus, up to five slave axes are
possible per CC 61xx.
