Rotary Axis Without Modulo Conversion - Siemens SINUMERIK 802D sl Function Manual

● The control calculates the direction of rotation and the traverse path according to the
● Application example of DC: the rotary table is required to approach the changeover
Incremental programming (IC, G91)
● The value identifies the rotary axis traversing distance. The value can be negative and ≥
● The value's sign unequivocally defines the rotary-axis traversing direction.
Example:
C=IC(720)
C=IC(-180)
Endless traversing range
As soon as the modulo function is active, no limit is placed on the traversing range (software
limit switches are not active). The rotary axis can now be programmed to traverse
continuously.
Example:
N10 LOOP: C=IC(7200)
N20 GOTOB LOOP

Rotary axis without modulo conversion

Absolute dimension programming (AC, G90)
Example of AC: C=AC(-410), general: axis name =AC (+/-value)
● The value and its sign uniquely identify the rotary-axis target position. The value can be
● The traversing direction is ascertained by the control according to the signed rotary-axis
