Description of MCS coupling functions

14.2.1

Defining coupling pairs

A CC_Slave axis is matched to its CC_Master axis via the following axial machine data:
MD63540 $MA_CC_MASTER_AXIS (specifies the CC_Master axis assigned to a CC_Slave
axis)
The coupling's axes can only be changed when the coupling is not active.
A CC_Slave axis is displayed in axial VDI-Out byte:
DB31, ... DBX97.0 (axis is slave axis)
Requirements
• The CC_Master and CC_Slave axes must be either both rotary axes or both linear axes.
• Spindles cannot be coupled by this function.
• Neither the CC_Master nor CC_Slave axis may be an exchange axis
($MA_MASTER_CHAN[AXn]=0)
14.2.2

Switching the coupling ON/OFF

CC_COPON()
CC_COPON([A1][A2][A3][A4][A5])
Switching the 1:1 coupling. Monitoring of tolerance window is active.
CC_COPONM()
CC_COPONM([A1][A2][A3][A4][A5])
Switching the 1:-1 coupling (mirror). Monitoring of tolerance window is not active.
A1 to A5 are axis names. These can be used to program either the machine axis names,
channel axis names or geometry axis names of the axis assigned to a coupling. In other
words, either the CC_Master axes or the CC_Slave axes or both can be programmed at the
same time. An alarm is output if an axis not involved in a coupling is programmed in A1-A5.
All defined couplings are switched on with CC_COPON() or CC_COPONM(). An active
coupling is displayed via the CC_Slave axis in axial VDI-Out byte:
DB31, ... DBX97.1 (activate coupling)
If mirroring is active, it is displayed additionally in:
DB31, ... DBX97.2 (activate mirroring)
