Function
The 840D/840D sl-specific help systems are displayed as standard:
• Help in the editor
• Alarm help
• Machine data help
If ISO dialect 0 help systems are to be displayed, a distinction must be made as to which
data is to be displayed, as the same commands can have multiple meanings, for example.
The [TEXTFILES] section of the "IF.INI" file has been extended by the entry
SiemensI=CST.DIR\IFIT_COM (turning technology) or SiemensI=CST.DIR\IFIM_COM
(milling technology) for this reason. This specifies the path (CST.DIR) and the name
(IFIT_COM or IFIM_COM) for the ISO mode quick "ASCII" help.
The extended "PDF" help can thus be called from the quick "ASCII" help.
