Commissioning 6.1 Safety during commissioning Commissioning Safety during commissioning WARNING Risk of injuries emanating from unexpected start-up. Connections which were not established correctly or external influences on the electrical equipment can cause the machine to start unexpectedly and uncontrolled movement. Activate and check all safety equipment and emergency-stop circuits prior to commis- sioning.
6.2 Initial commissioning Initial commissioning When the machine is delivered with servo amplifier and software, the start-up is conduc- ted via the Weiss Application software WAS.handling Windows programme. More information is also contained in the operating manual WAS.handling Control HN, which is included in delivery.
Operation 7.1 Safety during operation Operation Safety during operation WARNING Risk of injury due to incorrect alteration of operating parameters. Improper changes of operating parameters can cause unforeseeable system behaviour. Operating parameters should only be changed by authorised personnel. Altered opera- ting parameters should be checked in a test.
