14.2 Replaceable geometry axes (GEOAX)
Function
The "Replaceable geometry axes" function allows the geometry axis grouping configured via
machine data to be modified from the part program. Here any geometry axis can be replaced
by a channel axis defined as a synchronous special axis.
Syntax
GEOAX(<n>,<channel axis>,<n>,<channel axis>,<n>,<channel axis>)
GEOAX()
Significance
GEOAX(...)
Command to change over (replace) the geometry axes
Note:
GEOAX()without any parameter calls the basic configuration of the
geometry axes.
This parameter is used to specify the number of the geometry axis that
should be assigned to the subsequently specified channel axis.
Range of values: 1, 2, or 3
<n>
Note:
With <n>=0, the subsequently specified channel axis can be
completely removed – without any replacement – from the geometry
axis group.
<channel axis>
The parameter is used to specify the name of the channel axis that
should be included in the geometry axis group.
