Spindle modes

Analog spindles

Generally, the following machine data [AXIS] is assigned when using analog spindles:

Based on these settings, the following state graph applies:

Digital spindles

When digital spindles are used (SERCOS), pay attention to the following when setting the machine data [AXIS]:

Based on these settings, the following state graph applies:
