Optimization possibility
If the automatic optimization is selected (
<Opt>="P") and if the parameter smoothing distance
(
<Dist>
) and angular tolerance (<angular tolerance>
) are specified for the following axis, then for tangential tracking, velocity steps of the slave axis as a result of steps in the leading
axis contour are smoothed. In this case, the following axis is controlled with look ahead (refer
to the diagram) in order to keep the deviation as small as possible.

Defining the angle change
The angular change limit at which an intermediate block is automatically inserted is defined
using the following machine data:
MD37400 $MA_EPS_TLIFT_TANG_STEP (Tangent angle for corner recognition)
Effect on transformations
The position of the rotary axis to which follow-up control is applied can act as the input value
for a transformation.
Explicit positioning of the following axis
If an axis, which is following your lead axes, is positioned explicitly the position is added to
the programmed offset angle.
All distance data are permissible (path and positioning axis motion).
Status of coupling
The status of the coupling can be interrogated in the NC part program using the system
variable $AA_COUP_ACT
[<axis>]:
Value Meaning
0 No coupling active
1,2,3 Tangential follow-up active
