Step Tree Structure - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Operating Manual

Package execution
When executing the package, the step tree is executed from top to bottom along the step
sequence marked in green. A step is always executed if its checkbox is green in the display.
When a step is executed, any existing step script is first checked. If the step script defines that
the step is to be processed further, the components linked to the step will be executed in the
configured sequence. Execution then proceeds to the next step.
When generating the step tree using the context menu, steps should be arranged in the
sequence that they should be executed when executing the package.
A step name can be freely selected. The numbering has no functional significance and is only
used to improve the overall orientation.
The step tree is simultaneously used for navigation when processing/editing components.
Steps can be copied, cut and pasted by means of the context menu. This covers all the
properties of a step and its subordinate steps (conditions, component links, notes, etc.).
Note
The external components allocated to the step are linked and are not copied. The link remains.
If steps with internal components are copied between projects, a selection can be made
between "Paste" and "Insert as link".
If "Paste" is selected, a copy is inserted as internal component in the target project.
If "Insert as link" is selected, the component remains in the original project and is linked as an
external component.
