5.6.2 Creating an axis with the axis wizard
Overview
The
TO axis provides the user with the technological functionality and the interface to the drive/
actuator. The TO axis processes the motion control commands from the user program (e.g.
MCC) and coordinates the interface to the drives. It executes control and motion commands
and indicates statuses and actual values.
When running through the axis wizard, the basic settings are made for the axis and the TO axis
interconnected to a drive (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated). Further options are available when "Use
symbolic assignment" has been activated:
● A real axis is interconnected to an already configured drive
● A real axis including drive is created via the axis wizard and the drive interconnected to the
axis
● A real axis is created without assigning this to a drive (assignment is made later)
