Example: Configuration of a 2-channel system with 3 spindles

Channel 1

Initialisation in the channel parameter list of channel 1:

3 spindles where the spindle with axis number 11 (S2) is to be the main spindle.

Both channels can address the spindle with logical axis number 11 as the main spindle by the spindle name "S". It can be programmed in conventional DIN syntax or in spindle-specific syntax.

Spindle "S1” can also be programmed from both channels in spindle-specific syntax.

Spindle "S3” is only available in channel 1. This spindle is not known in channel 2.
