# Path or time-related pre-output of H functions (P-CHAN-00107)

P-CHAN-00107 | Path or time-related pre-output of H functions
Description | This parameter is used in connection with H functions

- of synchronisation types MET_SVS, MET_MOS and MEP_SVS, MEP_MOS. The lead time is specified for MET_SVS, MET_MOS and the lead distance for the MEP_SVS or MEP_MOS type.
- of synchronisation types MOS, MVS_SVS, MVS_SNS, MNS_SNS, MOS_TS and the ‘microwebs’ function which requires a separate license (see [FCT-C1]). Path-related parameters make sense here.

The field index 'i' defines the number of the associated H function. The value of h_pre_outp[i] defines the path and time-related output point before actual processing of the H function on the path.

Parameter | h_pre_outp[i] where i = 0 999 (maximum number of H functions, application-specific)
Data type | UNS32
Data range | 0 ... MAX(UNS32)
Dimension | 0.1µm or µs
Default value | 0
Remarks | The pre-output value can also be defined in the NC program [PROG//Chapter V.G. variables]. Caution: If the synchronisation type of an H function is later changed into one which requires no pre-output value, h_pre_outp[i] must be assigned to 0. Otherwise, a license error is generated in case of microwebs if this function is not licensed or not enabled (see P-STUP-00060).

Parameterisation example:

User-specific H functions H96 and H98 must be output to the PLC 10 mm before reaching the synchronisation position in the block sequence.

The output of the user specific H functions H97 and H99 to the PLC must be executed 40 milliseconds before reaching the time of synchronisation in the block sequence.
