Modifications from version 01 to version 2.X of Tool Management for SINUMERIK 840
and SINUMERIK 840C.
The following functions have either been improved in version 03 or are new additions.
Cycles
The cycle messages (load/unload via tape) are stored as an alarm file on
the diskette. These alarms must be transferred to the UMS. This makes it
possible to display alarms even on cycle inhibit.
As from NC software version 6.1, a program error is output if the
command "@714" is not programmed alone in a block. The tool
management cycles have been adapted to this.
The P0 memory is now available to the user for his own use.
Operating
The milling example is now available in WS 800 A format.

combinations in the case of asymmetrical tools).
Expansion of
(Applies to NC software version 6.1 only)
local buffer
More machine data are available for tool management as from software
memory

tool buffer memory (see also Section 10).
Simulation
