Creating user-specific alarm texts

Alarm, user, message text files

4.1.1

Introduction

General
This chapter describes the basics and the procedure to follow when in-house text files, e.g.,
for in-house cycle alarm texts or in-house PLC alarm texts and messages, are to be inserted.
With Sinumerik 840D sl, all alarm text files are stored in the CompactFlash card's file system.
The file system is subdivided into the directories (subtrees) "siemens", "addon", "oem", and
"user". Each directory is structured in the same way.
Note
None of the files in the "siemens" area may be changed!
New/modified text files can be inserted into "oem" (for the machine manufacturer) or "user"
(for end user).
Access to CompactFlash card (optional)
You can access the CompactFlash card's file system in order to insert/edit text files in the
"Commissioning" operating area via the "HMI" →"Editor (only HMI)" → "Memory Card (CF)"
softkeys and the file functions provided there.
See Editing user-specific text files (Page 83).
Note
The CompactFlash card can only be accessed while the NCU is running.
