6.2 General machine data (general data)
d. It must be possible to program the axes of one coupled axis grouping in the same
channels MD 576* bits 7 to 0 and MD 580*, bits 7 to 0.
e. The axes in a coupled axis grouping must be available
(NC MD 564* bit 7 = 1).
f. None of the axes of a coupled axis grouping is allowed to be a fictitious axis
(NC MD 564* bit 6 = 0).
g. One leading axis can couple several axes.

h. The leading axis of a coupled axis grouping cannot at the same time be the coupled
axis of the same grouping (observe also NC MD 5156 to 5188).

i. The leading axis of a coupled axis grouping can also be the coupled axis of another
grouping (observe also NC MD 5156 to 5183).
j. A leading axis cannot couple itself.

k. A coupled axis can be coupled with several leading axes if the leading axes are in other
coupled-axis groupings and these coupled-axis groupings are not active at the same
time.
The definition of the coupled-axis groupings can be changed with warm restart without
POWER ON (see Section Functional Descriptions for a more detailed description of warm
restart).
