Subroutine 42 - SPINDLE (spindle control)
Purpose
Subroutine 42 is used for spindle control, including the spindle braking function. When the braking function is activated, in
the JOG mode press the "SPINDLE LEFT" key or "SPINDLE RIGHT" key and then press the "SPINDLE STOP" key, after
that, the spindle brakes. In the AUTO mode, the spindle brakes when it changes rotating direction or coasts down. When the
spindle brakes, corresponding output becomes active; meanwhile, the spindle does not accept rotary command until braking
completes.
