1.1.2 Direction of traverse
The machine parameters MP210 and MP1040 determine the direction of traverse for the axes.
The direction of traverse for the axes of numerically controlled machine tools are defined by DIN
(see also under "Axis designation").
MP210 defines the counting direction for the encoder signals. The counting direction depends on
the mounting orientation of the encoders.
