Siemens Sinumerik 810T - Manual (Page 6)

Preliminary Remarks
Notes for the reader
The SINUMERIK documentation is organized in three parts:
• User documentation
• Manufacturer documentation and
• Service documentation
This documentation/User's Guide has been written for machine tool users.
This publication provides detailed information required by the user for operating and
programming the SINUMERIK 810T control.
This User's Guide comprises two distinct parts:
• Part 1: Operating
• Part 2: Programming
Operating
Part 1 of the User's Guide explains:
• The configuration of the control
• The operating elements:
– CRT display with softkeys
– Keyboard and display panel of the control
(The key assignment can be altered by the machine tool manufacturer. See
information supplied by the machine tool manufacturer).
– Keys and switches on the external machine control panel
• Operating sequences
• Data interfaces and interfacing to the machine
• Diagnostics and maintenance
It is not possible to include in this User's Guide any details relating to an additional operator
panel provided by the machine tool manufacturer.
Programming
Part 2 of the User's Guide describes for you the programming possibilities which are currently
available for the SINUMERIK 810T Basic Version 3.
The information required in order to execute the designed operations, such as:
• Workpiece dimensions
• Choice of tool
• Traverse path of tool and axis slides
• Sequence of machining operations
• Rotational speeds
• Feedrates
is put in the required sequence by the programming which also translates them into a
language understood by the SINUMERIK 810T Basic Version 3.
