Axis names can be selected from X, Y, Z, A, B, C, U, V, W, and T. X and
Y, however, are automatically selected and always assigned to the basic
axes.
1020 Name of the axis used for programming for each axis
[Data type] Byte axis
Set the name of the program axis for each control axis, with one of the
values listed in the following table:
Axis

Axis

Z 90 W 87 C 67
NOTE
1 If the system supports the function for machining multiple
workpieces, addresses U, V, and W cannot be used for the
names of the axes controlled by the CNC.
2 If macro functions A, B, U, V, and W for a punch press are
used, addresses A, B, U, V, and W cannot be used for the
names of the axes controlled by the CNC.
3 When the secondary auxiliary function is provided, address
B cannot be used as an axis name.
4 If the C–axis synchronous control function is supported, the
C
2
–axis is automatically assigned the number immediately
subsequent to the axis number of the C
1
–axis. Subscripts
are not added. (The two axes have the same axis name, C.)
Example: When the fourth axis is C
1
, the fifth axis
automatically becomes C
2
.
