For tool–specific functions, you can modify the parameter texts in the "Prog.
edit" → "Linear Circular" → "Machine Function" menu and the cursor texts in the
tool list. Cursor texts are texts, shown in the message line when the cursor is
positioned on the relevant input field.
The texts of the tool–specific functions can be changed in the text file ALUC.TXT.
For this purpose, select the texts in the directory /siemens/sinumerik/cycles/lng/deu
you want to change and save the text files edited in the editor in the directory
– /oem/sinumerik/cycles/lng/deu or
– /user/sinumerik/cycles/lng/deu
The texts are assigned to the following text numbers in the file ALUC.TXT:
