4.3.3 Read Coordinates (Module 9040/9041/9042)
Module 9040: PLC reads axis coordinates ( Format: 0.001 mm)
Module 9040 downloads axis coordinates for all NC axes from the control loop. The values are filed
in 5 doublewords in the format 1/1000 mm starting with the specified target address.
Constraints:
- The values for all axes are always downloaded irrespective of whether individual axes are disabled
by machine parameter MP10. The values for disabled axes are undefined.
- Before the reference point is traversed on an axis the coordinate value of that axis is undefined.
Possible errors:
- The argument for the coordinate type is outside the permitted range.
- The specified target address is not a doubleword address (i.e. not divisible by 4).
- 5 doublewords cannot be written at the specified target address (target address too big).

Module 9041: PLC reads axis coordinates (Format: 0.0001 mm)
Module 9041 downloads axis coordinates for all NC axes from the control loop. The values are filed
in 5 doublewords in the format 1/10000 mm starting with the specified target address.
Constraints:
- The values for all axes are always downloaded irrespective of whether individual axes are disabled
by machine parameter MP10. The values for disabled axes are undefined.
- Before the reference point is traversed on an axis the coordinate value of that axis is undefined.
