Structure and classification of axis parameters
The parameters of Machine Axis Data Set (axis parameters) contain the data of an axis that are initialized application-specifically. The parameters are defined in the following structures:
Structure names in the ASCII file | Contents |
|---|---|
kopf | Machine Axis Data Header |
getriebe | Gear step-dependent data |
kenngr | General characteristic values |
lr_param | General position controller parameters |
lr_hw | Hardware-dependent position controller parameters |
bahnrg | Path control parameters |
vorsteuer | Feed forward parameters |
antr | Parameters for drives |
handbetrieb | Parameters for manual operation |
twincat | Twincat system manager |
In this document the following abbreviations are used for the different axis types:
Axis type | Translatory axis | Rotary axis | |
Abbreviation | T | R | |
Axis type definition "kenngr.achs_typ " | ACHSTYP_- TRANSLATOR (Linear axis) | ACHSTYP_- ROTATOR (Rotary axis) | ACHSTYP_- SPINDEL (Spindle) |
 | The abbreviations "T" and "R" in this documentation determine solely the dimension of the parameters in the ASCII-file. The allocation of axis type definition "kenngr.achs_typ " influences the data block to be assigned in axis parameters list. The description of possible axis types, axis operating modes and the drive types is given in chapter 3.1. |
The field indices to be stated for the axis parameters list correspond to the internal indexing of the NC kernel. The value ranges of parameters are defined, if necessary, also by specifying a limit arising due to the data format, e.g. MAX(UNS32) etc.
