Description
4 - 6 en-938818/7
Category Axis declaration
Type 0 8-bit hexadecimal
No. of words 2
Defines the maximum number of axis groups controlled by the system.
Principle
The system can control a maximum of eight axis groups. There two types of axis groups:
- CNC axis groups,
- PLC axis groups.
Word N0 specifies the number of CNC axis groups (1 to 8).
Word N1 specifies the number of PLC axis groups (0 to 7).
Total number of groups: N0 + N1 ≤ 8 for 1060 Series 1
Total number of groups: N0 + N1 ≤ 3 for 1060 standard Series 2 and UCSII
Total number of groups: N0 + N1 ≤ 3 for 1020 and 1040
Total number of groups: N0 + N1 ≤ 4 for 1040 GP
! CAUTION
1060 systems equipped with a PLC function programmable in assembler language
are limited to five axis groups.
No. of groups controlled Value in N0 or N1
One group 1
Two groups 2
Three groups 3
Four groups 4
Five groups 5
Six groups 6
Seven groups 7
Eight groups 8
