The software update 5.7.5 is available for download in the Rexroth Store, under the "Software" link.
Improvements
Increased number of displayed decimal places for force and position
The position is now generally displayed with three decimal places, the force up to 100 N with two decimal places, and for higher values with one decimal place.
This improvement enables processes with a smaller measuring range and higher accuracy. A suitable force sensor hardware is required
Force-controlled Joining with I/O step advance
The "Force-controlled joining" sequence block has been extended by a parameter to advance to the next sequence step by setting an input signal. This makes it possible to abort the force control prematurely to the defined hold time via an external signal.
