Classification of channel parameters

The data of machine data set for control data preparation (in short channel parameters) contains application specific configuration data.

In this structure inter-axis system parameters of the control system are defined. In addition, the default axis and spindle configuration of an axis group are also determined. Furthermore, the desired technology commands and their coding for transfer to PLC are defined. The units of measurements and the dimensions of the traverse paths given in the NC-program are specified.

The field indices to be specified for the axis data correspond to the decoder-internal axis, axis-group, main axis group indexing.

Value ranges of parameters, if necessary, are also defined by stating a limit that is obtained on the basis of the data format, e.g. MAX(UNS32), etc.
