3.1 Maintenance

3.1.1 Creating maintenance schedules
Description of functions
The maintenance schedules contain the maintenance-related tasks to be
performed on the machine (maintenance, inspection, and servicing).
Maintenance procedures may be logged in the schedule in a purely text-based
format; alternatively, "intelligent" maintenance procedures, which automatically
determine data via axis tests in order to performing purposeful status-oriented
maintenance, may also be logged.
•
The schedules are activated in a control monitor either on a timer- or event-
triggered basis or as a combination of both. The maintenance schedule then
becomes a maintenance order and is due for the responsible organization.
A schedule always applies to just one machine.
•
The maintenance jobs are produced on a time-controlled basis, in time
intervals, on an event-triggered basis, or in event-triggered intervals. This is
executed via the universal trigger of a control monitor.
•
A maintenance job via a control monitor only becomes pending when the
control monitor is initiated, and is then due immediately.
•
Maintenance schedules can be updated at any time: This only affects
maintenance schedules that will be output after the changes have been made,
and not those that have already been output. This also applies if a schedule is
deleted.
Note
If users are logged on to the control as machine operator, they can process the
pending jobs. For machines with version V3, they do not have to be a member of
the target organization; for machines of version V4, they require authorization to
act as machine operator (MO) for this machine.
