Siemens SINUMERIK 840D Function Manual page 493

If sequential operation of 1 x synchronous spindle pair for part transfer from the main to the
supplementary spindle and the 1 x multi-edge turning is required, then the CP-BASIC variant
is suitable and sufficient. However, if it cannot be excluded that both operations can overlap
(multi-edge turning running when part transfer is started), the CP-COMFORT variant would be
required.
The versions are independent of one another. They can be combined and can be activated
simultaneously.
Table 14-2 Quantity structure, which is dependent on the execution of coupling modules that can be simultaneously activated
Type CP versions allow one or more different CPSETTYPE coupling objects simul‐
taneously:
A Coupled motion
B Synchronous spindle with |1|:1 coupling
C o./u. Synchronous spindles, multi-edge turning
o./u. Master value coupling / curve tables interpolation
o./u. MCS coupling
D o./u. Electronic gearbox "plain"
o./u. Free generic coupling "basic"
E o./u. Electronic gearbox
o./u. Free generic coupling
o./u. stands for over/under
