H1: Manual and handwheel travel
4.15 Start-up: Handwheels
If the handwheels are not directly connected to the control, additional measures are required,
e.g. connection via PROFIBUS- or Ethernet-MCP or handwheel module, inserting and
configuring the module with SIMATIC STEP 7, HW-Config.
Note
Currently only six handwheels can be parameterized in a SINUMERIK control system.
