Delete tool environment

DELTOOLENV function
This function can be used to delete sets of data used to describe tool environments. Deletion
means that the set of data stored under a particular name can no longer be accessed (an
access attempt triggers an alarm).
The DELTOOLENV function is a predefined subprogram.
It must, therefore, be programmed in a separate block.
Syntax:
There are two call formats:
Value/parameter:
Status
_NAME
The first call format deletes all data sets.
The second call format deletes the data set with the specified name.
Data sets can only be deleted using the DELTOOLENV command, by an INITIAL.INI
download or by a cold start (NCK powerup with default machine data). There are no further
automatic deletion operations (e.g., on RESET).
Basic logic functions: Tool Offset (W1)
