Programming
The $AA_ETRANS offset values are programmed by assigning the axis-specific system
variables.
Assigning offset value
$AA_ETRANS[axis]=RI
RI is the arithmetic variable of type REAL that contains the new value.
The external offset is generally set by the PLC and not specified in the parts program.
Note
The value entered in the parts program only becomes active when the corresponding signal
is enabled at the VDI interface
(NCU-PLC interface).
