Load location
The contents of DW 2 to DW 5 indicate an empty location which can be loaded. This location
must be positioned on the loading point by the machine program.
Unload location
The contents of DW 2 to DW 5 indicate a location with a tool to be unloaded. This location
must be positioned on the loading point by the machine program.
No empty location found
During loading with operator guidance, no empty location with a suitable size was found in the
search for an empty location.
Job active
During "Loading with operator guidance", the signal has a "1" state for as long as the data
distributor is entering tool data from tape, computer or code carrier into the loading line. (If a
tool has several cutting edges, all cutting edges are entered in the loading line.) During this
time, the loading process can neither be acknowledged nor aborted. The signal is reset from
"Interface valid" to "0" at the positive-going edge.
