10.5.11 Positioning axes
Positioning axes are channel axes traversing parallel to the path axes without
interpolating with them.
Positioning axes can be traversed either from the parts program or from the
PLC.
The machine data
 MD30450: IS_CONCURRENT_POS_AX (concurr. positioning axis) = 1
is used to assign the PLC a channel axis by default. To traverse it from the parts
program later, it must be requested explicitly using a parts program statement
(GET).
If a positioning axis is programmed in the parts program without specifying an
axis-specific feedrate, the feedrate entered in
 MD32060: POS_AX_VELO (initial setting for positioning axis velocity
will apply to this axis automatically.
This feedrate will apply until an axis-specific feedrate is programmed in the
parts program for this axis.
