31 Machine parameters
31.1 Explanation
A contouring control must have access to specific data (e.g., traverse distances, acceleration, shaft
speeds) before it can execute its programmed instructions.
You define these data in what are known as machine parameters.
The list of machine parameters is structured according to topic groups.
If there is more than one input value for a single function (e.g., a separate input for each axis), the
parameter number is extended by indices.
Index zero is always axis 1, index one is axis 2, etc.
Example:
In the OEM.SYS system file, the number of axes used or intended is entered after the term
AXISNUMBER in order that only the necessary index parameters are displayed.
With other machine parameters you can activate specific functions. In this case, the parameters
serve as on/off switches for these functions. These parameters are bit-encoded. Each bit is
assigned either to an axis or a function.
Example:
MP10 : %00000000011111 ; active axes
