This publication is intended for project engineers, programmers, technologists (of

with and can select them. It provides the target group with the information re-
quired to implement the functions.
Utilization phase: Planning and configuration phase, implementation phase, setup
and commissioning phase
Standard scope
This documentation only describes the functionality of the standard version. Addi-
tions or revisions made by the machine tool manufacturer are documented by the

Other functions not described in this documentation might be executable in the

with a new control or when servicing.
