4.1 Maintenance
Overview
The functions that ePS Network Services provides for maintenance purposes are
divided into different sections:
•
Maintenance jobs that are already in place and relate to an entire organization
are available in the organizational tasks.
•
It is possible to use the machine views in order to select individual mainte-
nance jobs on a machine-specific basis.
•
The "Set up functions" area in the maintenance schedules explains how main-
tenance procedures are set.
•
A central scheduling function for maintenance procedures is located in the
management, next to the machine master data for the machine function set-
tings.

Other options for linking maintenance procedures with control monitors and axis
tests are described in the relevant sections.
Description of functions
The maintenance jobs describe the maintenance and servicing tasks to be per-
formed on the machine. Maintenance jobs are always found in a maintenance
schedule stored in the system.
The maintenance schedule contains the work instructions required for the proce-
dures, in the form of text that has been entered directly, an attached file, or a refer-
ence to the maintenance manual and, if necessary, with functions that can be exe-
cuted directly via the system (such as axis tests).
