10.7.4 Machine-specific version management

General
Machine-specific version management uses version zones to define the hierarchy
level within which NC data with the same name, type, and version can occur. By
defining a version zone, you can ensure that the same program is always used
within the version zone.
Version zones are always defined at higher-level node points (groups or sub-
groups). The node at which the version zone is defined and all of the subordinate
nodes (groups, subgroups, machines) together form the version zone.
Note
The plant root (at the top) is a node, not a group.
You can only define the version zone at node points (groups, subgroups). Version
zones cannot be defined at machine level.
When you define a version zone, this causes all subordinate objects (including the
NC data directly underneath this node) to align with this node.
Note
If you do not define a version zone, each object (each node and each machine)
is regarded as a separate version zone. This is the default setting when the
system is shipped.
