input value
Here, the number of the data word which marks the beginning of the tool buffer is to be
entered by the user. Since data words 0 and 1 are used by the system, the tool buffer can
only start from data word 2. The tool buffer area can comprise a maximum of 29 data words
where one data word is required for every buffer available to a machine (spindle, gripper, etc.).
If the initial address entered is greater than 2, a buffer area is generated between data word 2
and the value entered which is not a mechanical image of the machine but required exclusively
for data handling (e.g. input/output line for loading via the operator panel).

MD No.
Description
Maximum
input value
The tool buffer area as a mechanical image of the machine can comprise up to 29 individual
locations provided it starts from data word 2. For each tool buffer location, one data word is
required within the magazine table.
