the language setting or start HMI Advanced again.
Display location type names in the HMI tool management screens
The language-specific names of the location types are displayed in all the tool management
screens and the tool management start-up screens. If there are no entries in the
corresponding INI files, the standard name from the tool database is displayed.
Affected screens/functions:
● Tool management:
● Tool management startup:
Tool catalog/tool cabinet
The standard name of the assigned location type is maintained and internally processed for
each tool in the tool catalog/cabinet.
The language-specific name is displayed in the tool catalog/cabinet screens for the location
type. If there is no language-specific name, the standard name from the tool database is
used instead.
Code carrier
The name of the magazine location type which is written via the dialog variable T8 to the
code carrier chip always corresponds to the standard name of the magazine location type
from the tool database.
Alternatively, the name of the magazine location type can be written to the code carrier via
dialog variable T12. T8 and T12 are also accepted. When the chip is read in, a cross check
is performed to associate magazine location type name and number.
