Step Description
5.
From the list in the next dialog box, select the physical units you want to use when programming
the axis and the user program.
Note: This selection applies only to this axis. The list may also show physical units which are
irrelevant to this axis due to its configuration.
Example: by setting a position unit in [mm], the value "1000.0" at the Position input of FB
"MC_MoveAbsolute" is proportional to a position value of 1000.0 mm.
Caution:
Numerical values in the user programs (e.g. for motion commands) are not converted into the
newly selected units. They always refer to the configured unit!
