Function call - only 840D sl
FC18
For SINUMERIK 840D sl, concurrent positioning axes can be started from the PLC using
FC18 (Function Call 18) of the PLC. The following parameters are passed to the function
call:
● Axis name/axis number
● End position
● Feedrate
● Absolute coordinates (G90), incremental coordinates (G91), absolute coordinates along
Since each axis is assigned to exactly one channel, the control can select the correct
channel from the axis name/axis number and start the concurrent positioning axis on this
channel.

Signals to axis/spindle (DB31, ...)
VDI input signals
The PLC user program uses the following signals to control the oscillation process.

DBX28.0
Edge evaluation: Yes
Signal state 1 or edge
change 0 → 1
Signal state 0 or edge
change 1 → 0
