Printing
The log can be printed for documenting the
copying process.
An Image Writer can also be used as
printer. This allows the archiving of the log
as file.
SELECT ICON
Print settings can only be made by means
of the settings for the selected printer.
Note
Copying user configurations is only possible in the current version of ePS Net-
work Services if the device classes (SINUMERIK, S7, IPC) for the source and
target machine are identical.
Copying user configurations with an axis reference is only possible in the current
version of ePS Network Services if the axis indices, axis names and measuring
system evaluation (translational or rotational) for the source and target machine
are identical.
In the case of cross-organizational copying, addresses are extended in the target
machine if this is required by the copied user configurations. This is shown in the
log.
Notice
User configurations that are present on the target machine are overwritten by
copying a configuration with the same name onto it.
User configurations can call other user configurations to act as configurations.
ePS Network Services automatically selects these for copying since, without
these, the user configuration to be copied would not be functional (unless this
user configuration was already available on the target machine).
Example: The "Maintenance - oiling" control monitor has the task of outputting the
"OILING" maintenance schedule. If the "OILING" maintenance schedule is not
present on the target machine, it must be copied onto it so that the control moni-
tor is able to function correctly. If the "OILING" maintenance schedule is present
on the target machine, a copy can still placed on it (thus overwriting the sched-
ule), but does not have to be, as the intention may be to use the existing one with
the "Maintenance - oiling" control monitor.
