Reference:
Description of Functions B3.
Description: The name of the channel axis/special axis is entered in this MD. Normally the
first three channel axes are assigned by the three assigned geometry axes
(see also MD20050 $MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_ASSIGN_TAB)
The remaining channel axes are also called special axes. The channel axis/
special axis at the screen in the WCS (workpiece coordinate system) is always
displayed with the name entered in this MD.
Special cases:
• The specified channel axis name/special axis name must not conflict with
the designation and assignment of the machine and geometry axis names or
other identifiers.
Names for Euler angle (MD10620 $MN_EULER_ANGLE_NAME_TAB),
Names for direction vectors (MD10640 $MN_DIR_VECTOR_NAME_TAB),
Names for intermediate circle point coordinates for CIP(MD10660
$MN_INTERMEDIATE_POINT_NAME_TAB)
and the names for interpolation parameters (MD10650 $MN_IPO_PARAM_NAME_TAB)
overlap.
• The channel axis name entered must not include any of the following
reserved address letters:
- D Tool offset (D function) - E Reserved
- F Feedrate (F function) - G Path condition
- H Auxiliary function (H function) - L Subroutine call
- M Miscellaneous function (M function) - N Subblock
- P Subroutine number of passes - R Arithmetic parameters
- S Spindle speed (S function) - T Tool (T function)
• The name must not include any keywords (e.g. DEF, SPOS etc.) or pre-
defined identifiers (e.g. ASPLINE, SOFT).
• The use of an axis identifier consisting of a valid address letter (A, B,
C, I, J, K, Q, U, V, W, X, Y, Z) followed by an optional numerical exten-
sion (1-99) gives slightly better block cycle times than a general iden-
tifier.
• No special names need be entered in this MD for channel axes to which
geometry axes are assigned (normally the first three channel axes).
Axis identifiers that are not allowed are rejected with an alarm during
runup.
