Deactivating an EG axis group

Variant 1
There are different ways to deactivate an active EG axis grouping.
EGOFS(following axis)
The electronic gearbox is deactivated. The following axis is braked to a standstill. This call
triggers a preprocessing stop.
Variant 2
The following parameterization of the command makes it possible to selectively control the
influence of individual leading axes on the motion of the following axis.
EGOFS(following axis, leading axis 1, ... leading axis 5)
Note
At least one leading axis must be specified.
The influence of the specified leading axes on the slave is selectively inhibited. This call
triggers a preprocessing stop.
If the call still includes active leading axes, then the slave continues to operate under their
influence. If the influence of all leading axes is excluded by this method, then the following
axis is braked to a standstill.
If the command EGONSYN is deactivated selectively, no axis movement is performed.
Variant 3
EGOFC(following spindle)
The electronic gear is deactivated. The following spindle continues to traverse at the speed/
velocity that applied at the instant of deactivation. This call triggers a preprocessing stop.
Note
Call for following spindles available. For EGOFC a spindle identifier must be programmed.
5.4.6

Deleting an EG axis group

An EG axis grouping must be switched off, as described in Chapter "Switching off a EG Axis
Group", before its definition can be deleted.
EGDEL(following axis)
The defined coupling of the axis grouping is deleted. Additional axis groups can be defined by
means of EGDEF until the maximum number of simultaneously activated axis groups is
reached.
This call triggers a preprocessing stop.
