Details in the menu functions.
There are 4 different menu structures:
• Standard menu
This menu is used for normal operation. The most important parameters for the production
can be changed here. The adjustments are lost after turning off the machine.
• Extended standard menu
This menu offers additional parameters and functions to those in the standard menu. Any
adjustments made in the extended menu are stored on quitting the menu and are
maintained even if the machine is then turned off.
• Product menu
If data banks are stored in the extended menu, the product menu can be activated. In this
menu, programmed data banks only can be selected. Changing parameters in this menu is
not possible. When storing data in a new data bank, the current adjustments are saved to
the new product data bank. You may change data values of a stored data bank by loading
the data from the extended standard menu, modifying them and resaving them in a data
bank.
• Configuration menu
In this menu, you configure the machine according to your applications. Additionally you
have access to service test functions. This menu is mainly dedicated to service technicians.
All current parameter settings are stored on quitting the configuration menu and are
maintained if the machine is then turned off.
