4.10 Axis Assignment to a Group P9
Description
4 - 24 en-938818/7
Category Axis declaration
Type 0 8-bit hexadecimal
No. of words 32
Used to associate the symbolic axis names with the physical addresses and groups.
Principle
The system can control up to 32 axes. These axes are assigned to eight groups with a maximum of nine axes in a
group.
The system can control three different types of axes (defined by customisation):
- CNC axes assigned to a CNC axis group,
- CNC axes assigned to a PLC axis group (axis assignment possible between CNC group and PLC group),
- PLC axes assigned to a PLC axis group (axis assignment possible between PLC groups only).
The physical axis addresses must be assigned in increasing order to the three types of axes:
- lowest addresses for the axes in the CNC axis groups,
- CNC axes assigned to PLC groups,
- the highest addresses for the axes in the PLC axis groups.
REMARKS: If the total number of axes and spindles defined in this parameter is higher than that
set during system customisation, the message «TOO MANY AXES OR SPINDLES»
is displayed at initialisation. After acknowledgement, the «PRSOV» indicator is
displayed in the CNC screen status window. The AUTO, SINGLE, DRYRUN, and
MDI modes are inhibited.
If the number of axes assigned to the PLC axis groups is less than the number of PLC
axes set during customisation, the message «WRONG NUMBER OF PLC AXES»
is displayed at initialisation. The AUTO, SINGLE, DRYRUN and MDI modes are
inhibited.
The word number gives the physical axis address. Each word includes two representative values.
Programme Parameter (see «Part Programming Manual»).
Programme parameter E7x005 is used to assign a CNC axis to a PLC axis group by programming. A reset reconfigures
the system in the state of P9.
