Activation of the workpiece counter $AC_REQUIRED_PARTS:

• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H3'

$AC_REQUIRED_PARTS is active
Display alarm for: $AC_REQUIRED_PARTS == $AC_SPECIAL_PARTS
Activation of the workpiece counter $AC_TOTAL_PARTS:
• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H10'

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[0] = 80

$AC_TOTAL_PARTS is active; the counter is incremented by the value 1 with each M02.
$MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[0] has no significance.
Activation of the workpiece counter $AC_ACTUAL_PARTS:
• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H300'

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[1] = 17

$AC_TOTAL_PARTS is active; the counter is incremented by a value of "1" with each M17.
Activation of the workpiece counter $AC_SPECIAL_PARTS:
• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H3000'

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[2] = 77

$AC_SPECIAL_PARTS is active.
With each M77 the following is realized: $AC_SPECIAL_PARTS + 1
Deactivation of the workpiece counter $AC_ACTUAL_PARTS:
• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H200'

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[1] = 50

$AC_ACTUAL_PARTS is inactive
Activation of all counters:
• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H3313'

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[0] = 80

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[1] = 17

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[2] = 77

$AC_REQUIRED_PARTS is active
Display alarm for: $AC_REQUIRED_PARTS == $AC_SPECIAL_PARTS
$AC_TOTAL_PARTS is active; the counter is incremented by the value 1 with each M02.
$MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[0] has no significance.
$AC_ACTUAL_PARTS is active; the counter is incremented by a value of "1" with each M17.
$AC_SPECIAL_PARTS is active; the counter is incremented by a value of "1" with each M77.

Workpiece counter $AC_ACTUAL_PARTS is not processed during the program test / block
search:
• MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER = 'H700'

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[1] = 75

$AC_ACTUAL_PARTS is active; the counter is incremented by a value of "1" with each M75, apart
from during the program test and search.
Cancellation of the count modes in the MD27880 $MC_PART_COUNTER with bit 0 = 1:
• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[0] = 41

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[1] = 42

• MD27882 $MC_PART_COUNTER_MCODE[2] = 43
