Overview

Task

This function permits a pause in the machining process to be made in a channel and to move the same physical axes from a second channel.

This is referred to as a channel switchover.

Properties

Switching over a channel to react to events which require any path motion, e.g. changing a torch in a flame or gas cutting operation.

Parameter

An auxiliary channel is required here; it must contain the parameters for the auxiliary axes.

Mandatory note on references 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.
