Note
Existing coupling options (Master value coupling, Electronic gearbox and Synchronous
spindle) are not taken into consideration by generic coupling. Simultaneous operation of
existing coupling options and generic coupling is only possible if the couplings refer to different
axes/spindles.
Memory configuration
Memory space reserved in dynamic NC memory for generic coupling is defined in machine
data:
MD18450 $MN_MM_NUM_CP_MODULES (maximum allowed number of CP coupling
modules)
MD18452 $MN_MM_NUM_CP_MODUL_LEAD (maximum allowed number of CP master
values)
Note
Recommendation: Expected maximum values, which can be expected simultaneously for this
machine in its maximum configuration, should already be set during commissioning.
Hardware requirements
Utilization of the "CP-EXPERT" option requires the application of:
● Systems with more than six axes
● NCUs ≧ NCU572 or NCU720
