Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions.
Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and

Target group
This publication is intended for:
● Project engineers
● Technologists (from machine manufacturers)
● System startup engineers (systems/machines)
● Programmers
Benefits
The function manual describes the functions so that the target group knows them and can
select them. It provides the target group with the information required to implement the
functions.
Standard scope
This documentation only describes the functionality of the standard version. Additions or
revisions made by the machine manufacturer are documented by the machine manufacturer.
Other functions not described in this documentation might be executable in the control.
However, no claim can be made regarding the availability of these functions when the
equipment is first supplied or in the event of servicing.
For the sake of simplicity, this documentation does not contain all detailed information about
all types of the product and cannot cover every conceivable case of installation, operation, or
maintenance.
Notes for the Reader
The function descriptions are only valid for the specific software version or up to the software
version specified. You should request valid function descriptions for new software versions.
Old function descriptions are only partly applicable for new software versions.
Technical Support

Technical information
Notations
The following notation and abbreviations are used in this documentation:
● PLC interface signals -> IS "Signal name" (signal data)
Example: IS "Feedrate override" (VB380x 0000)
The variable byte is located in the "to axis" range, x stands for the axis:
0 Axis 1
1 Axis 2
n Axis n+1.
● Machine data -> MD MD_NR MD_NAME (description)
e.g.: MD30300 IS_ROT_AX (rotary axis)
● Setting data -> SD SD_NR SD_NAME (description)
e.g.: SD41200 JOG_SPIND_SET_VELO (JOG velocity for the spindle)
● The chapter titles are supplemented by a code in brackets (e.g. Chapter 1: EMERGENCY
STOP (N2)). This brief description is used in cross references to other chapters.
The machine and setting data are divided into the following areas:
Range Data area Meaning
200 - 399 $MM_ Display machine data
10,000 - 18,999 $MN_ General machine data
20,000 - 28,999 $MC_ Channelspecific machine data
30,000 - 38,999 $MA_ Axis-specific machine data
41,000 - 41,999 $SN_ General setting data

Explanations for the technical data
Protection level:
Protection levels 0 to 7 have been used. The lock for protection levels 1 to 3 (4 to 7) can be
cancelled by entering the correct password and 4 to 7 via IS "Protection level" (e.g.
keyswitch position). Protection level 0 is not accessible. (refer to Chapter "Various Interface
Signals")
The operator only has access to information protected by one particular level and the levels
below it. Various protection levels are assigned to the machine data by default and are
marked with a write/read value (e.g. 4/7).
Note
Machine and setting data of protection levels 2 to 7 are described in this document.
Protection level 1 machine data is only referred to in special cases (expert mode).
Data types:
The following data types are used in the control:
● DOUBLE
Floating-point value (64-bit value)
Input limits from +/-4.19*10-307 to +/-1.67*10308
● DWORD
Integer values (32-bit values)
Input limits from -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,648 (decimal);
as hexadecimal value: 0000 through FFFF
● BYTE
Integer values (8-bit values)
Input limits from -128 to +127 (decimal); as hexadecimal value: 00 through FF
● BOOLEAN
Boolean value: TRUE (1) or FALSE (0)
● STRING
Consisting of max. 16 ASCII characters (upper-case letters, numbers and underscore)
Detailed explanations
● Detailed explanations for the machine/setting data and interface signals used can be
found in the
Reference: "Parameter Manual".
● Detailed explanations of the alarms which may occur can be found in the
References: "Diagnostics Manual".

Various Interface Signals (A2) 1
1.1 General
Brief description
This chapter describes the functionality of various interface signals which are of general
relevance, but are not described in the function-specific chapters.
Interfaces
The exchange of signals and data between the PLC user program and the NCK (kernel of
the numerical control) or HMI (display unit) is performed via various data areas. The PLC
user program does not have to handle the exchange of data and signals. From the users
point of view, this takes place automatically.

1.2 Signals from PLC to NCK
Turning, Milling, Nibbling
20 Function Manual, 11/2012, 6FC5397-1CP10-5BA0
Cyclic signal exchange
The control and status signals of the PLC/NCK interface are updated cyclically.
The signals can be subdivided into the following groups (see previous figure):
● General signals
● Operating mode signals
● Channel signals
● Axis/spindle signals
1.2 Signals from PLC to NCK
1.2.1 Access authorization
Access authorization
Access to programs, data and functions is useroriented and controlled via eight hierarchical
protection levels. These are subdivided into:
● Four password levels for Siemens, machine manufacturer (2x) and end user
● Four protection levels for end users (interface signals V2600 0000.4 to .7)
This provides a multilevel safety concept for controlling access rights.
