3.1 3.1 Flat D number structure
Grinding tools
Grinding tools (tool types 400-499) cannot be defined using the simple tool management
structure (flat D numbers).
Block search
When T numbers are output to the PLC, a synchronization mechanism is triggered in the
NCK:
with absolute, indirect D programming the PLC supplies the D values via VDI.
The NCK waits until the output of a T number is followed by a response from the PLC:
"I have written the D number". With block search without calculation, this process of
synchronization must be deactivated until the first valid T number has been output again.
That means that the NCK must not wait on D programming.
Note
Machine data:
$MC_AUXFU_AT_BLOCK_SEARCH_END
can be used to control the timing of the output of auxiliary functions to PLC at the end of a
block search ‒ automatically on End, or on NC Start.
REORG
The (only) writable variable $A_MONIFACT, which is defined here, is stored by main-run
data. Since the write process takes place synchronously to the main run, no special
measures are required for Reorg.
