Tool service life

Description of tool service life functions:

For users to manage a tool's usage status, and use settings such as "remaining service life reminder" and
"maximum service life" to issue alerts or warnings to remind users.
Instructions for using tool service life functions:

"Tool status" field: It can be divided into five types of status including "Not used", "New tool", "Used",
"Approaching", and "Reached". If the field is reset as a "New tool", the numerical value of the "Current service
life" field will be set as 0.

"Current service life" field: The total number of times a tool has been used.

"Maximum service life" field: The maximum number of times a tool has been used. When the numerical value in
the "Current service life" field is equal to the numerical value in the "Maximum service life" field, the "Tool
status" field will change into "Reached", and the system will issue an alert.

"Remaining service life reminder" field: It is for reminding users that the number of times this tool has been used
has reached the set value. When the numerical value of "Maximum service life" minus the numerical value of
"Current service life" is equal to or less than the numerical value of "Remaining service life reminder", the "Tool
status" field will become "Approaching", and the system will issue an alarm.
