Benefits
The function manual describes the functions so that the target group knows them and can select them. It
provides the target group with the information required to implement the functions.
Standard version
This documentation only describes the functionality of the standard version. Extensions or changes made by the
machine tool manufacturer are documented by the machine tool manufacturer.
Other functions not described in this documentation might be executable in the control. This does not, however,
represent an obligation to supply such functions with a new control or when servicing.
Further, for the sake of simplicity, this documentation does not contain all detailed information about all types of
the product and cannot cover every conceivable case of installation, operation or maintenance.
