Software option #46 "Python OEM Process" is an effective tool for you to use
an object-oriented high-level programming language in the control (PLC).
"Python OEM Process" can be used for machine functions and complex
calculations, as well as to display special information. It is especially useful for
the implementation of user-specific or machine-specific solutions, regardless
of whether special algorithms or interfaces for special functions have to be
created.
The applications created can be displayed by the PLC in the familiar PLC
windows or in separate freely definable windows that can be expanded to the
TNC's full screen size.
The system requires at least 512 MB of RAM. The RAM of the MC can be
checked in the herosdiagnose.txt file. The RAM of the MC is listed in [kB]
under the Total Memory heading.
Proceed as follows to create the herosdiagnose.txt file:
While in the Programming and Editing operating mode, press the MOD key.

A separate documentation exists for Python OEM Process, which you can
download free of charge from the HEIDENHAIN HESIS-Web including
Filebase under "PC software > Python" together with simple examples and
additional PC tools for debugging and for the development of user interfaces.
Please note the Python documentation for the respective NC software. It is
also available on HEIDENHAIN HESIS-Web including Filebase, under
"PC Software > Python".
