Modifications from version 01 to version 2.X of Tool Management for SINUMERIK 840 and SINUMERIK 840C. The following functions have either been improved in version 03 or are new additions. Cycles The cycle messages (load/unload via tape) are stored as an alarm file on the diskette.
The volume of tool data which can be stored is restricted by the tool offset memory capacity, 16 Kbytes in the case of SINUMERIK 880, 32 Kbytes for SINUMERIK 840 (also referred to as TO memory) and the current maximum length that can be used in the data blocks in the PLC, that is 256 data words per submagazine.

SINUMERIK 880/880 GA2 and up to 4 individual magazines can be set with SINUMERIK 840/840C. Each channel is assigned to one magazine. The assignment is fixed in the sense that submagazine 1 is assigned to NC channel 1 and submagazine 2 to NC channel 2, etc.
DW 63 to DW 69 of the corresponding channel DB. In the case of SINUMERIK 840, software version 1 onwards, this function is implemented by the basic package, in previous versions it is implemented by the tool management.

The data of all P memories can be modified. If cursor is on change position or loading point, only "Display tool data" is possible. Softkey "HELP" or key "i" for SINUMERIK 840/840C Provides a description of the abbreviations used in the display.
Sets the status bit "tool marked for unloading" which is displayed with the identifier "M". The tools to be marked can be selected with the cursor. Softkey "HELP" or key "i" for SINUMERIK 840/840C Gives explanation of the abbreviations used in the display.
Wordstar file. The general documentation on the tool management therefore only deals with the screen forms. Softkey assignment on the SINUMERIK 880/880 GA2 and SINUMERIK 840/840C may differ slightly (880/880 GA2 5 softkeys, 840/840C 7 softkeys).
