Example: $MA_JOG_VELO[Y1]=2000
The JOG velocity of axis Y1 is 2000 mm/min.
If the content of a machine data is a STRING (e.g., X1) or a hexadecimal value (e.g., H41),
the content must be enclosed in single quotation marks (e.g., 'X1' or 'H41').
Example: $MA_FIX_POINT_POS[0,X1]=500.000
The value 500 is assigned to the first fixed point position on axis 1.
Examples:
$MN_AUXFU_GROUP_SPEC[2]='H41'
Output instant in time of the auxiliary functions of the 3rd auxiliary function group.
$MN_AXCONF_MACHAX_NAME_TAB[0]='X1'
String "X1" is assigned as name for the first machine axis.
$MA_REFP_SET_POS[0,X1]=100.00000
A value of 100 mm is assigned to the first reference point of axis X1.
Examples:
Assignment to channel-specific machine data:
$MC_/ $SC_
$MCS_/ $SCS_
Channel-specific machine/setting data
$MA_/ $SA_
$MAS_/ $SAS_
Axis-specific machine/setting data

Note
Axis-specific data can also be addressed with the axis name as an index. The internal axis
identifier (AX1, AX2, AX3, etc.) or the identifier specified in MD10000
$MA_AX_CONF_NAME_TAB can be used as the axis name.
