Note
M functions M3, M4, M5, and M70 are not output in DB21, ... DBB194 and DBB202 if a
spindle is configured in a channel. These M functions are offered as extended M functions in
DB21, ... DBB68 ff. and in the relevant axis DBs, DB31, ... DBB86 ff.

2.5.2 Programming via synchronized actions
M40 to M45
M functions M40 to M45 can also be programmed in synchronized actions.
Please note:
• Programming of M40...M45 in the part program has no effect on the current status of the
automatic gear step change of synchronized actions, and vice versa.
• When programming S values with M40, automatic gear step change is effective
separately for synchronized actions and the part program.
For synchronized actions:
• M40 is deactivated after POWER ON.
The gear step is not adjusted if an S value is specified from a synchronized action.
• An M40 command programmed using synchronized actions always remains active for
synchronized actions (modal) and is not reset on RESET.
M41...M45 selects the first to fifth gear step according to the programming instructions in the
part program.
Please note:
• An axis replacement is necessary in order to run the function.
• Once the gear step change has been performed, the spindle status is neutral (same
response as M3, M4, M5 instructions).

synchronized actions can be found in:
