1.2.4 Controlled Axes Detach
General
These signals release the specified control axes from control.
When attachments are used (such as a detachable rotary table), these
signals are selected according to whether the attachments are mounted.
The signals can also be used for switching the C axis and spindle on
lathes.
When multiple rotary tables are used in turn, the tables must use motors
of the same model. Absolute pulse coders cannot be used.

[Operation] When the signals are 1, the control unit operates as follows:
(1) Position control is not executed at all. Servo motor excitation is
cut.
(2) Servo alarm on the axis is ignored.
(3) Axis interlock signal is assumed to be zero on the detached axis.
(4) A command for automatic or manual operation is effective for the
axis,
but do not execute the command. The command is accepted but
the operation is restrained, because the axis interlock is 0. In an
automatic operation, the execution may stop and hold at the block.
(5) Position display also displays the position of the detached axis.
