DNC Plant/DNC Cell (FBDN1)
3 Operator interface
Generic filtering
You can use the generic filter to search for specific files in the tree display on the
left.
All NC data recorded in DNC and which fulfills the filter conditions is displayed
when the filter is activated.
To create a filter, click the root of the tree display on the left and then activate your
filter.
Files in links are not displayed!
Note
In the case of large plants, a maximum of 1000 items of NC data can be
displayed to prevent the user from having to wait too long. For this reason,
choose a suitable filter so that only the relevant NC data is displayed.
The Workpiece administrative data is only relevant with the generic filter. Under
normal circumstances, no NC data is displayed if "Workpiece" has been defined
as a criterion for the filter.
The list display of the generic filter is defined in the "GLOBAL" display group. If
this display group does not exist, the standard list display is used (for more
information, see "List editor").
