Key number

Description

Logical key number from which tasking originates.

ST path

Commanded value

pMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Command.W_LogKeyNr

Requested valuepMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Request.W_LogKeyNr

Data type

UINT

Value range

One of the values defined in the configuration list hand_mds.lis for the characteristic parameters tasten_data[X].log_tasten_nr as logical inching key pair number.

Start/end of keystroke

Description

Start/end of keystroke event and traverse direction of the traversing direction keys in Manual mode

ST path

Commanded value

pMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Command.W_Direction

Requested valuepMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Request.W_Direction

Data type

INT

Value range

-1 Start of keystroke, traversing direction negative

0 End of keystroke

1 Start of keystroke, traversing direction positive

Characteristics

Since compliance with a keystroke involves message-orientated transfer (usage data item), both the “Start of keystroke” event and the “End of keystroke” event must be generated by the PLC.

Lifetime of the key signal

Description

If this element has a value not equal to 0, the CNC independently generates the “End of keystroke” event after receipt of a “Start of keystroke” event after expiry of the period preset by the number of specified interpolator cycles.

ST path

Commanded value

pMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Command.D_LifeTime

Requested valuepMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Request.D_LifeTime

Unit

Number of interpolator cycles

Data type

UDINT

Characteristics

See Note

Retriggering, Start of keystroke event

Description

Retriggering the “Start of keystroke” event.

If element Lifetime of the key signal has a value not equal to 0, the Start of keystroke event can be retriggered if the Lifetime of the key signal has not yet expired.

ST path

Commanded value

pMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Command.X_FRefresh

Requested valuepMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.MCControlHB_Data.HBKeyControlUnit_KeyX.HBKey_Request.X_FRefresh

Data type

BOOL

Value range

[TRUE = Retriggering the “Start of keystroke” event, FALSE]

Characteristics

See Note

Note: The “Lifetime of the key signal“ and “Retriggering of “Start of keystroke” event“ elements represent a sort of watchdog function. Their use is indicated in particular if the time response of the PLC is not ensured (e.g. soft PLC as Windows task).
