Automatic "GET"
If an axis is in principle available in a channel but is not currently defined as a "channel axis",
GET is executed automatically. If the axis/axes is/are already synchronized no preprocess
stop is generated.
Varying the axis replacement behavior
The transfer point of axes can be set as follows using machine data:
● Automatic axis replacement between two channels then also takes place when the axis
● When requesting an axis container rotation, all axes of the axis container which can be
● When an intermediate block is inserted in the main run, a check will be made to
● Instead of a GET block with preprocessing stop and synchronization between

the axis states of this block do not match the current axis states.
preprocessing and main run, axes can be replaced without a preprocessing stop. In this
case, an intermediate block is simply generated with the GET request. In the main run,
when this block is executed, the system checks whether the states of the axes in the
block match the current axis states.
