3. Parameter
8311 Number of the master axis for twin table control
Data type: Byte axis
Valid data range: 1,2,3,...,number of controlled axes
Set the number of the master axis at this parameter of the slave axis for twin table
control. Value data are expressed like follows: 1 means the 1st axis, 2 means the 2nd
axis,...
(example) If the master axis is Y-axis(2nd axis) and the slave axis is V-axis(4th axis):
parameter No.8311x 0
No.8311y 0
No.8311z 0
No.8311v 2

As in usual CNC operation, movements along the master and slave axes are specified by individual axis addresses, Y and V. The movements along the master and slave axes can be specified in an identical block.
