COUPOF AXIS:
Follow‐
ing spin‐

AXIS:
Leading
spindle
REAL:
Switch-off
position of
the follow‐
ing spindle
(absolute)
REAL:
Switch-off
position of
the leading
spindle (ab‐
solute)
Switch-off synchro‐
nous spindle coupling
If positions are speci‐
fied, the coupling is on‐
ly cancelled when all
the specified positions
have been overtrav‐
eled
The following spindle
continues to revolve at
the last speed pro‐
grammed before deac‐
tivation of the coupling
COUPOFS AXIS:
Follow‐
ing spin‐
dle
AXIS:
Leading
spindle
REAL:
Switch-off
position of
the follow‐
ing spindle
(absolute)
Switch off the synchro‐
nous spindle coupling
with stop of the follow‐
ing spindle
If a position is speci‐
fied, the coupling is on‐
ly cancelled when the
specified position is
crossed
WAITC AXIS:
Follow‐
ing spin‐
dle
