3.9 IMPROVEMENT OF TURRET/MAGAZINE NUMBER
OUTPUT
3.9.1 Overview
ATC/turret control of peripheral equipment control allows output of the
turret/magazine number in response data. In the past, however, the
turret/magazine number based on the current position was not output
until ATC/turret control was issued after the power was turned on or if
the control was interrupted.
Because of this improvement, the turret/magazine number based on the
current position is constantly output including the above cases.
3.9.2 Details of Function
The turret/magazine number to be output in response data is improved
as described below.
(1) The turret/magazine number based on the current position is
constantly output.
• It is constantly output, even until ATC/turret control is issued
after the power is turned on and if ATC/turret control is
interrupted.
• The nearest turret/magazine number is output even if the
current position is not a magazine position. For example, if
one rotation about the rotation axis is by "360°" and the
number of magazine/turret numbers (parameter No. 068) is
"4", the turret/magazine number is output as shown in Fig.
3.9.2 (a).
