Mitsubishi MELSEC-Q QD77MS - M Code Output Function

Chapter 13 Control Sub Functions
13.7.3 M code output function
The "M code output function" is used to command sub work (clamping, drill rotation,
tool replacement, etc.) related to the positioning data being executed.
When the M code ON signal is turned ON during positioning execution, a No. called
the M code is stored in "
Md.25
Valid M code". These "
Md.25
Valid M code" are read
from the PLC CPU, and used to command auxiliary work. M codes can be set for each
positioning data. (Set in setting item "
Da.10
M code" of the positioning data.)
The timing for outputting (storing) the M codes can also be set in the "M code output
function".

[1] M code ON signal output timing
The timing for outputting (storing) the M codes can be set in the "M code output
function". (The M code is stored in "
Md.25
Valid M code" when the M code ON
signal is turned ON.)
The following shows the two types of timing for outputting M codes: the "WITH
mode" and the "AFTER mode".
(1) WITH mode
The M code ON signal is turned ON at the positioning start, and the M code
is stored in "
Md.25
Valid M code".
