Figure 5-21 Assigning a drive
The following setting options are available for the drive assignment:
● Assign drive 
Assigning a previously configured drive
● Define assignment later 
The axis is to be assigned to a drive at a later point in time.
This enables
– The PLC and motion control functions to be completely configured by a programmer 
even without drive know-how using technology objects (e.g. TO axis) and loaded to the 
device.
– The drives to be separately configured and optimized by a drive expert.
– The technology objects to be symbolically assigned later to the drive objects via an 
interconnection dialog box.
