MACHINE PARAMETERS

Px02
Px03

These parameters are used when Px01 has been set to display the result of an
operation between the readings of two axes.

Px02 indicates the first operand and P03 the second one.

All linear axes can be used as operands even the same axis; but no rotary axes can
be used as operands.

Example: To display the result oF adding the readings of the 1st and 3rd axes in
the area of the first axis and call it “C axis”:

P100 C

; Indicates the name of the first axis

P101 ADD

; Display the addition of the two axes

P102 1

; 1st operand

P103 3

; 2nd operand

Px04

Indicates whether the reading of this axis will be displayed or not on the CRT.

YES

is is displayed

it is not displayed

Px05

Indicates whether the feedback signal is square or sinusoidal.

Px06

Indicates whether the axis is LINEAR or ROTARY.

Px07

Indicates the measuring units for the feedback pulses according to the following
code:

MM/DEG

millimeters for linear axes and degrees for rotary axes.

INCHES/DMS

inches for linear axes and degrees, minutes, seconds for
rotary axes.

Px08

Indicates the counting direction. Positive or Negative.
