Parameters: %1 = Channel number %2 = Block number, label %3 = Following axis/spindle number Definitions: After reaching the setpoint-side sy nchronism, the time until reaching the actual value-side synchronism is coarsely monitored. The tolerance is not reached within the time window defined in MD37240 $MA_COUP_SYNC_DELAY_TIME[0]: MD37200 $MA_COUPLE_POS_TOL_COARSE or MD37220 $MA_COUPLE_VELO_TOL_COARSE Reaction: Alarm display. Remedy: Please inform the authorized personnel/service department. The interrelation between MD37240 $MA_COUP_SYNC_DELAY_TIME[1] and MD37200 $MA_COUPLE_POS_TOL_COARSE or MD37220 $MA_COUPLE_VELO_TOL_COARSE must be adapted to the mechanical conditions.
