11.1 Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

File Sysytem

Topic

Question

Possible solution

File System

How to use "CreateDirectory" method?

The OPC UA server can create a folder with any extension or

with no extensions in the USB drive, network share, and local

drive. However in the NC drive, we can create an extension

with "DIR" only.

How to use "CreateFile" method?

The "CreateFile" method is used to create a new file. The cre-

ated file can be written using the "Write" method of the File-

Type. The OPC UA server can create file without extension in

the USB drive, network share, and local drive but not in the NC

memory.

How to use "Delete" method?

• The "Delete" method is used to delete a file/directory. The

OPC UA server will not allow to delete the file if the file is

opened for the file operation. You must close the file handle

to delete the file. In case of directory, all the file and direc-

tory objects below the directory to delete are deleted re-

cursively.

• A file which is selected for execution or a folder which con-

tains the selected file are not allowed to be moved. How-

ever if the file is moved there is a possibility that an empty

file will be created.

How to use "MoveOrCopy " method?

• The "MoveOrCopy" method is used to move or copy a file/

directory to another directory or to rename a file/directory.

• The OPC UA server can move any file or folder without ex-

tension in the USB drive, network share, and local drive but

not in the NC memory. In the NC memory, a folder with the

extension "DIR" can only be allowed to be moved to the NC

memory.

• The OPC UA server will not allow to move the folder if the

file is opened for the file operation.

• A file which is selected for execution or a folder which con-

tains the selected file, are not allowed to be moved. How-

ever if the file is moved there is a possibility that an empty

file will be created.

How to use "Open " method?

When a client opens a file, it gets a file handle that is valid while

the session is open. Clients shall use the "Close" method to

release the handle when they do not need access to the file

anymore. Clients can open the same file several times for read.

How to use "Read " method?

The "Read" method is used to read a part of the file starting

from the current file position. The file position is advanced by

the number of bytes read. The data contains the returned data

of the file. If the ByteString is empty, it indicates that the end of

the file is reached.

Trouble shooting

11.1 Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Topic

Question

Possible solution

How to use "Write " method?

The "Write" method is used to write a part of the file, starting

from the current file position. The file position is advanced by

the number of bytes written. When the client session is closed,

all the open file handled will be closed for the respective ses-

sion. In this scenario, if there is any existing file opened with

write mode or append mode, the current data will be lost.

How to use "Close " method?

The "Close" method is used to close a file represented by a

FileType. When a client closes a file, the handle becomes inva-

lid.

How to use "GetPostion " method?

The "GetPosition" method is used to provide the current posi-

tion of the file handle. If a "Read" or "Write" method is called, it

starts at that position.

How to use "SetPosition " method?

The "SetPosition" method is used to set the current position of

the file handle. If a "Read" or "Write" method is called, it starts

at that position. If the position is higher than the file size, the

position is set to the end of the file.

Does OPC UA standard file system support

No, only the default machine name is mapped (target system

1:N constellation?

IPC only).

MD 35010: $MA_GE-

AR_STEP_CHANGE_ENABLE

Parameterize gear stage change

Meaning of bit places:

o Bit 0 = 0 and bit 1 = 0:

There is an invariable transformation ratio between motor and load. The MD of the first gear stage is active. Gear stage change

is not possible with M40 to M45.

o Bit 0 = 1:

Gear stage change at undefined change position. The gearbox can have up to 5 gear stages, which can be selected via M40,

M41 to M45. To support the gear stage change, the motor can carry out oscillating motions, which must be enabled by the PLC

program.

o Bit 1 = 1:

Same meaning as bit 0 = 1, but the gear stage change is carried out at a configured spindle position. The change position is

configured in MD35012 $MA_GEAR_STEP_CHANGE_POSITION. The position is approached in the current gear stage before the

gear stage change. If this bit is set, bit 0 is not taken into account!

o Bit 2: Reserved

o Bit 3 = 1:

The gear stage change dialog between NCK and PLC is simulated. The setpoint gear stage is output to the PLC. The system does

not wait for a feedback signal from the PLC to the NCK. The acknowledgment is generated internally in the NCK.

o Bit 4: Reserved

o Bit 5 = 1:

The second gear stage data set is used when tapping with G331/G332. The bit must be set for the master spindle used when

tapping. Bit 0 or bit 1 must be set.

INDEX_AX_ASSIGN_POS_TAB (A, M)

MD 30500: $MA_INDEX_AX_AS-

SIGN_POS_TAB

Axis is an indexing axis

The variable defines the axis as an indexing axis.

Machine axes which only have to approach certain positions can be defined as indexing axes. The positions are shown in

position tables 1 and 2:

Multiple axes can also be assigned to an indexing position table.

The requirement for this is that these indexing axes are of the same type (linear axis,

rotary axis).

Return value

o =0: The axis is not declared as an indexing axis.

o =1: The axis is an indexing axis. The associated indexing positions are shown in

table 1 (MD10910 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_1).

o =2: The axis is an indexing axis. The associated indexing positions are shown in

table 2 (MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2).

o =3: Equidistant indexing

o >3: Alarm 17090 "Value greater than upper limit"

Axis is a virtual axis

The variable defines an axis as a virtual axis.

A virtual axis is an axis which is interpolated in follow-up mode. The virtual axis is used with master value coupling.

Examples are the electronic transfer CP, master value coupling with curve tables or flying scissors.

JOG_VELO (A, M)

MD 32020: $MA_JOG_VELO

Jog axis velocity

The specified velocity applies to traversing in JOG mode with an axial feedrate override switch setting of 100%.

The velocity is only used if the general SD41110 $SN_JOG_SET_VELO = 0 and the linear feedrate is selected

(SD41100 $SN_JOG_REV_IS_ACTIVE = 0) for linear axes, or SD41130 $SN_JOG_ROT_AX_SET_VELO = 0 is selected for rotary

axes.
