Function:
(dependent on parameter assignment)
The PI service allows you to search for tools with specified properties within a search domain
(in one or more magazines starting and ending at a specific location). The specified
properties refer only to data of the tools and their cutting edges. The PI service is only
available if tool management is activated. You can define a search direction and the number
of hits for the PI service (e.g., one tool for the next tool with matching properties or all tools
with the specified properties). As a result of this service, the user who made the call receives
a list of the internal T numbers of the tools found.
The search criteria can only be specified as AND operations. If an application needs to
define an OR operation for the search criteria, it must first execute a series of queries with
AND criteria and then combine/evaluate the results of the individual queries.
