Axis container-specific functions
MD12760 $MN_AXCT_FUNCTION_MASK.Bit x = <value>
Parameters <value> Meaning
0 For a direct axis container connection (AXCTSWED), all other
channels must be in the RESET state.
Bit 0:
1 For a direct axis container connection (AXCTSWED), only other
channels that have the interpolation authorization to axes of the axis
container need to be in the RESET state.
The machine data is used to activate the axis container-specific functions.
Assignment of machine axes to the slots of an axis container
MD1270x $MN_AXCT_AXCONF_ASSIGN_TABx[ <index> ] = <axis>
Parameters Meaning
x: 1 … max. number of axis containers
<index>: 0, 1, … max. slot index
<axis>: Machine axis name of a local machine axis (e.g. AX1)
Name of a link axis. See Section "General information (Page 94)".
The slots within an axis container must be assigned in ascending order without gaps, starting
with slot index 0.
Setting data
Increment of an axis container rotation
SD41700 $SN_AXCT_SWWIDTH[<index>]=<increment>
Parameters Meaning
<index>: 0, 1, … max. axis container index
<increment>: Number of slots through which the axis container rotates
Illustration of the axis container rotation
The axis container rotation is enabled by means of program commands. See Section
"Programming (Page 110)".
In the following Fig. 1 (left-hand side), the NCU1_AX1 link axis is a
ssigned as example to
slot 1 in the Initial setting axis container.
After the rotation with increment of 1 (Fig. 1, right-hand side), the NCU2_ AX2 link axis is
assigned to slot 1.
