TRAFO_TYP_212 – Axis coupling
Transformation structure:
A transformation consists of a master and a slave axis. After the transformation is activated, the slave axis follows the motion of the master axis multiplied by a coupling factor.
The transformation with the ID 212 allows an axis coupling at PCS level. This transformation is comparable to the function #GEAR LINK.
Release Note

Function available as of V3.1.3110.3.
The major differences are:
- The coupling acts on the basis of the programming coordinates compared to the axis coordinates.
- This coupling includes the coupling motion when the path dynamics are considered.
Restrictions of the transformation:
- The slave axis may not be traversed while the coupling is active.
- No CS or transformation may be changed while the coupling is active.
- A modulo calculation may not be active with either of the axes.
CNC error ID 22274 is triggered with points 1 and 2.
Notice

If the slave axis is defined in the #FGROUP, the motion is taken into consideration by the transformation.
Parameters of the transformation
param[i] | Description | Unit |
0 | Logical axis number of the master axis | [ - ] |
1 | Logical number of the slave axis | [ - ] |
2 | Coupling factor | [ - ] |
