3.6 Controlled axes
The machine parameter MP50 determines which of the five NC-axes should be controlled.

Further parameters for the NC-axes may be found in the section "machine axes".
The PLC functions which are described in the following sections are only effective for controlled
axes.
3.6.1 Axis-enable, feed rate enable
After switching on the control voltage the "Axis-enable markers" are automatically set by the NC, so
that the machine axes can be held in closed position loops by the control .

The feed rate enable must be specified for all axes by M2451 and complement marker M2467 or
through byte B520 before the axes can be moved. If the feed rate enable is removed, the analogue
voltage is output as 0 V and the axes immediately stop moving. The letter "F" is then highlighted in
the status display.
