Whether or not each axis will be used is indicated by “1” or “0.”

(Upper) (Lower)

Axis number

Axis 4

Axis 3

Axis 2

Axis 1

Used 1 1 1 1

Not

used

0 0 0 0

[Example] When axes 1 and 2 are used

Axis 2

0011 --- (The two 0s in front are not necessary. With the 0s removed, the expression reads “11.”)

Axis 1

[Example] When axes 1 and 4 are used

Axis 4

1001 --- (In this case, the 0s are needed to indicate the position of axis 4.)

Axis 1

Indirect specification of axis pattern in a variable
The axis pattern is considered a binary value, and a converted decimal value is assigned to a variable.

[Example] To perform home return for axis 3 only, you can specify as follows based on axis pattern:

HOME 100

In indirect specification, 100 (binary) is expressed as 4 (decimal), so the same operation
can be specified as follows:

LET

6 4

HOME *6

If you must select and specify multiple axes at the same time, use axis pattern.
