Part 2 Programs
(2) Axis pattern
Whether or not each axis will be used is indicated by “1” or “0.”
(Upper) (Lower)
Axis number Axis 2 Axis 1
Used 1 1
Not used 0 0
[Example]
When axes 1 and 2 are used
Axis 2
11
Axis 1
[Example]
When axes 2 is used
Axis 2
10 (In this case, the 0s are needed to indicate the position of axis 2.)
Indirect specification of axis pattern in a variable
The axis pattern is considered a binary value, and a converted decimal value is assigned to a variable.
[Example]
To perform home return for axis 2 only, you can specify as follows based on axis pattern:
HOME 10
In indirect specification, 10 (binary) is expressed as 2 (decimal), so the same operation can
be specified as follows:
LET 6 2
HOME *6
If you must select and specify multiple axes at the same time, use axis pattern.
