Customized insertion strips
The MCP package also includes an A4-sized blank plastic sheet with detachable strips. You can customize insertion strips if
the pre-defined strips cannot meet your needs.
In the \examples\SINUMERIK_808D_ADVANCED\MCP folder of the Toolbox DVD for the control system, there is a symbol
library file and an insertion strip template file. To make customized insertion strips, follow the steps below:
1. Copy the desired symbols from the symbol library file to the desired locations in the insertion strip template.
2. Print the template to the A4-sized blank plastic sheet.
3. Detach the insertion strips from the blank plastic sheet.
4. Pull out the pre-inserted strips from the MCP.
5. Insert the customized strips on the back of the MCP.
Note
This manual assumes a SINUMERIK 808D ADVANCED standard MCP. Should you use a different MCP, the operation
may be other than described herein.
