This Manual contains information which you should carefully observe to ensure your own personal safety and the prevention of material damage. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring to property damage only, have no safety alert symbol. Depending on the hazard level, warnings are indicated in a descending order as follows:

precautions are not taken.

Correct use

Warning

means that there can be slight physical injury if the corresponding safety measures are not followed.

without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage may result if proper precautions are not taken.

This means that an undesirable result or an undesirable state can occur if the information is ignored.

If multiple levels of hazards can occur, the warning is always displayed with the highest possible level. If a warning with a warning triangle is to indicate physical injury, the same warning may also contain information about damage to property.

The associated device/system may only be set-up and operated in conjunction with this documentation. The device/system must be commissioned and operated by qualified personnel only. Qualified personnel as referred to in the safety guidelines in this documentation are those who are authorized to start up, earth and label units, systems and circuits in accordance with the relevant safety standards.

Please observe the following:

The device must only be used for the applications specified in the catalog and in the technical description. The device must only be used in conjunction with external devices and components recommended or approved by Siemens. Correct, reliable operation of the product required proper transport, storage, positioning and assembly, as well as careful operation and maintenance.

Layout of manual

Structure of descriptions

All functions and operating options have been described according to the same internal structure as far as this is meaningful and practicable. The various levels of information have been organized such that you can selectively access the information you need for the task in hand.

1. Function

The theoretical section is primarily intended as learning material for the NC entry-level user and includes important information to assist the user to understand the operator functions. You should work through the manual at least once to get an idea of the operational scope and capability of your SINUMERIK control.

2. Sequence of operations

This section contains the sequence of keys required for operation at a glance. If inputs have to be made at individual stages of the sequence or if you require additional information, you will find this next to the key illustrations.

3. Additional information

For safety reasons, some functions are disabled to protect them from unauthorized access. The machine manufacturer can customize or modify the described functionality. Please comply fully with the instructions of the machine-tool manufacturer.

In this documentation, you will find this symbol with a reference to an

ordering data option. The described function can only run if the control contains the designated option.

Notes This symbol appears in this documentation whenever it is necessary

to draw your attention to an important item of information.

References This symbol appears whenever specific information can be found in

other documentation. A complete list of available literature is included in the Appendix of this Operator’s Guide.

Introduction 01/2008

1.1 Product overview

The SINUMERIK controller is a CNC control system (Computerized

Numerical Control) for machine tools.

You can use the CNC control system to implement the following basic functions in conjunction with a machine tool:

• Creation and adaptation of part programs

• Execution of part programs

• Manual control

• Reading in and reading out of part programs and data

• Editing of data for programs

• Displaying and troubleshooting alarms

• Editing of machine data

• Setting up of communication links between 1 or more operating

units (m) or 1 or more NCs (n) (m:n, m operating units and n NCK/PLC units).

Operating areas

The basic functions are grouped in the following operating areas in the control (in gray boxes):

Execution of part program s, manual control

Editing data fo r p ro gra m s/ tool ma nagem ent

Development and ad aptation of part program s

Reading in/out and archivin g programs an d data

Alarm display s, service displays
