Links to other documents
For the sake of clarity, links to other documents and parameters are abbreviated, e.g. [PROG] for the
Programming Manual or P-AXIS-00001 for an axis parameter.
For technical reasons these links only function in the Online Help (HTML5, CHM) but not in pdf files since
pdfs do not support cross-linking.

Classification of clamp position offset data
Clamp position offsets can be defined in different groups in the clamp position offset data list. The required
clamp position offset group can be loaded by selecting the clamp position offset index before program start-
up. Each clamp position offset group contains the clamp position offset data for all path axes and is generally
referred to below as clamp position offset.
The clamp position offset data is included in the coordinates of all path axes at program start-up. The axis
index corresponds to the channel-internal axis index. The initial axis configuration of the NC channel is
defines in the channel parameters
[CHAN// Section: Configuration of path axes].
Value ranges of parameters may also be defined by stating a limit resulting from data width, e.g.
MAX(UNS32), etc.
1.3
Syntax and interpretation of ASCII list file
An interpreter copies the entries in the ASCII list file into identical internal structures which are then checked
for plausibility. To ensure reliable controller start-up every time, any defective entries found by the plausibility
check are replaced by default values.
Unknown entries are not taken over. These irregularities are displayed by warning messages. We advise you
to investigate the cause for these warning messages and remove defective entries from the ASCII list file.
The following agreement applies to BOOLEAN data:
