General machine parameters. Execution channels.

Channel configuration.
GROUPID
Group the channel belongs to.
Possible values: From 0 to 2.
Default value: 0 (it does not belong to any group).
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPG.GROUPID
Two or more channels may be configured to form a group. The channels of the same group
behave as follows.
• Each channel may be in a different work mode, except in jog and automatic modes.
Toggling between the jog mode and automatic mode of a channel will affect all the
channels of the group that are in any of these modes; the channels that are in a different
mode will not be affected.
• A reset in any of the channels of the group affects all of them.
• Any error in any of the channels of the group interrupts the execution in all of them.
CHTYPE
Type of channel.
Possible values: CNC / PLC / CNC+PLC.
Default value: CNC.
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPG.CHTYPE
A channel may be governed from the CNC, from the PLC or from both.
Channels governed by the PLC have neither jog mode nor MDI/MDA mode. The automatic
and EDISIMU modes are available, but programs cannot be executed or simulated.
If during setup, it is necessary to display these work modes or execute or simulate programs,
set the channel as being governed from the CNC+PLC and once setup is completed, set
it back as a PLC channel.
HIDDENCH
Hidden channel.
Possible values: Yes / No.
Default value: No.
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPG.HIDDENCH
Hidden channels are not displayed and cannot be selected.
A hidden channel cannot be reset from the operator panel; to reset it, either group it with
another channel or reset it from the PLC mark RESETIN.
