The following columns in the pocket table are used for magazine rules:
PTYP: Tool type
RSV: Reserved pocket
P1 to P5: Values 1 to 5 for evaluation in the PLC (e.g., axis positions of a
pocket in the box magazine). Module 9304 copies the values to a word
memory.
LOCKED_ABOVE: Pocket above is locked
LOCKED_BELOW: Pocket below is locked
LOCKED_LEFT: Pocket to the left is locked
LOCKED_RIGHT: Pocket to the right is locked
With FN18: SYSREAD ID51 the cells of the pocket table can be read.
Module 9340 searches a magazine for vacant, reserved or unavailable
pockets.
Module 9342 uses a tool number to determine the magazine number and
pocket number.
Module 9341 processes the pockets depending on the magazine rules.
Pockets can be reserved, released and made unavailable.
Module 9216 is used to display a selection list in a pop-up window for placing
tools into magazines and for removing them. The selection list is created by
the NC at run time, and contains tools with and without pocket assignment as
well as empty pockets. The user selects an entry from the selection list with
the arrow keys, and Module 9216 reports the selection to the PLC for further
processing.
