Simultaneous operation ofexisting coupling options and generic coupling is only possible if the couplings refer to differentaxes/spindles.Memory configurationMemory space reserved in dynamic NC memory for generic coupling is defined in machinedata:MD18450 $MN_MM_NUM_CP_MODULES (maximum allowed number of CP couplingmodules)MD18452 $MN_MM_NUM_CP_MODUL_LEAD (maximum allowed number of CP mastervalues)NoteRecommendation: Expected maximum values, which can be expected simultaneously for thismachine in its maximum configuration, should already be set during commissioning.14.5.2 Fundamentals14.5.2.1 Coupling moduleWith the help of a coupling module, the motion of one axis (→ following axis) can be interpolateddepending on other axes (→ leading axes).Coupling ruleThe relationships between leading axis/values and a following axis are defined by a couplingrule (coupling factor or curve table). The individual motion components from the individualleading axes/values have an additive effect.The relationship is demonstrated by the following example (following axis with two leadingaxes):M3: Coupled axes14.5 Generic couplingAxes and spindlesFunction Manual, 06/2019, A5E47437747B AA 495
