Overview
Easy Extend enables machines to be retrofitted with additional devices, which are controlled by
the PLC or that require additional NC axes (such as bar loaders, swiveling tables or milling
heads), at a later point in time. These additional devices are easily commissioned, activated,
deactivated or tested with Easy Extend.
Communication
The communication between the operator component and the PLC is performed via a PLC user
program. The sequences to be executed for the installation, activation, deactivation and testing
of a device are stored in a statement script.
Available devices and device states are displayed in a list. The view of the available devices can
be controlled for users according to their access rights.
The subsequent chapters are selected for example only and are not available in every
statement list.
