Basic Definitions
A word is an element of a traversing block and consists of an address character and a
sequence of digits. The address character is an alphanumerical sequence of digits. The
sequence of digits may have a sign and a decimal point. The sign must be located between
the address character and the sequence of digits, a positive sign is not entered. No blank is
admitted between the address and the value.

Block numbers from 1 to 200 are admitted. The blocks may be assigned to any number but
make sure that the program is executed in ascending order of the block numbers. It is
recommended to define the block numbers in steps of five (5, 10, 15 ...) to be able to insert
further blocks subsequently.

Axis assignment
The physical hardware axes A*, B* and C* are situated on the WF 723 C module. A logic name
(X, Y, Z for linear axes and A, B, C for rotary axes) can be assigned to each hardware axis by
means of machine data 38.

axis entries.
