2.12 Block search
System variables
The spindle-specific auxilary functions are always stored in the following system variables on
block search, irrespective of the programming described above:
System variable
$P_SEARCH_S [ n ]
$P_SEARCH_SDIR [ n ]
$P_SEARCH_SGEAR [ n ]
$P_SEARCH_SPOS [ n ]
$P_SEARCH_SPOSMODE [ n ]
For later output of the spindle-specific auxiliary functions, the system variables can be read
in an ASUB, for example, and output after the action blocks are output:
DB21, ... DBX32.6 = 1 (Last action block active)
Note
The contents of the system variables $P_S, $P_DIR and $P_SGEAR may be lost after block
search due to synchronization operations.
More detailed information on ASUB, block search, and action blocks is to be found in:
