Parameter Description Unit
Data for 
● Main+counterspindle
All values for the main and counterspindle are saved in one data set
● Main spindle
Data set for the main spindle
● Counterspindle
Data set for the counterspindle
If the machine does not have a counterspindle, then the entry field "Data for" is not 
applicable.
 
Work offset The work offset in which the zero point of the workpiece is saved.
You can also delete the default value of the parameter if you do not want to specify 
a work offset.
