3.16.8 Master/slave coupling (MASLDEF, MASLDEL, MASLON, MASLOF, MASLOFS)
The "master/slave coupling" enables:
● The coupling of the slave axes to the master axis, when the axes involved are at standstill.
● The coupling/decoupling of rotating, speed-controlled spindles.
● The dynamic configuration.
Note
Positioning mode
For axes and spindles in the positioning mode, the coupling is only closed and opened at
standstill.
Syntax
MASLON(<slave_1>,<slave_2>,...)
MASLOF(<slave_1>,<slave_2>,...)
MASLOFS(<slave_1>,<slave_2>,...)
Dynamic configuration:
MASLDEF(<slave_1>,<slave_2>, ... ,<master>)
MASLDEL(<slave_1>,<slave_2>,...)
Meaning
MASLON:
Activating a temporary master/slave coupling
<Slave_x>,...: Slave axis 1 ... n
MASLOF:
Decoupling an active master/slave coupling
<slave_1>,...: Slave axis 1 ... n
MASLOFS:
Decoupling a master/slave coupling and automatically braking slave spindles (see note
"Coupling behavior for spindles! in speed control mode"!)
<slave_1>,...: Slave axis 1 ... n
MASLDEF:
Creating/changing a master/slave group from the part program
<slave_1>,...: Slave axis 1 ... n
<master>: Master axis
MASLDEL:
Separate master/slave coupling and delete the definition of the grouping
<slave_1>,...: Slave axis 1 ... n
Note:
The master/slave definitions configured in the machine data are retained.
