Channel-specific signals (DB21, ...)
PLC to NC:
• Control signal "Delete distancetogo"
NC to PLC:
• NC status signals (NCK alarm active)
Axis/spindle-specific signals (DB31, etc.)
PLC to NC:
• Control signals to axis/spindle (e.g. followup mode, servo enable, etc.)
• Control signals to drive (bytes 20, 21)
NC to PLC:
• Status signals from axis/spindle (e.g. position controller active, current controller active, etc.)
• Control signals from drive (bytes 93, 94)
Function interface
The function interface is generated by function blocks (FB) and function calls (FC). Function requests, e.g. to
traverse axes, are sent from the PLC to the NC via the function interface.
