The following identifiers should be preferably chosen for the names of the rotary axes:
● Rotary axis rotates around machine axis X → A
● Rotary axis rotates around machine axis X → B
● Rotary axis rotates around machine axis Z → C
For automatic rotary axes, the channel names of the corresponding NC rotary axes must be
entered (see $TC_CARR37[n] TENS and HUNDREDS position: Automatic mode). For manual
(manually adjustable) and semiautomatic rotary axes, you can use any axis identifier (up to
six letters or digits).
Manual and semiautomatic rotary axes are not defined in the NC. With manual rotary axes,
the value for the angular range is entered in the dialog box. Semiautomatic rotary axes are
moved mechanically on the machine, e.g. through a coupled spindle. The adaptations for this
can be made in the CUST_800 manufacturer cycle. The value for the angular range must not
be specified, the rotary axis positioning is performed automatically.

Please refer to the machine manufacturer's specifications.

In order that a value can be displayed in the input/selection boxes of the dialog for swiveling,
the following display versions can be set:
