Changes in the pre-installed Windows system

If changes are made to the pre-installed Windows system,

HEIDENHAIN does not guarantee that this will have no negative

effects on the function of the control software, and therefore on the

quality of the parts produced.
Changes to the system settings, installation of updates or installation

of additional software in particular can have a lasting effect on the

control software. HEIDENHAIN has tested important Windows

security updates from Microsoft and integrated them, as far as

possible, in the pre-installed Windows system. All other modifications

are the responsibility of the machine tool builder or the user.
To minimize the probability of adverse effects on the machine control

operation or on the quality of the parts manufactured with it,

HEIDENHAIN recommends observing the following rules regarding

such modifications and, in particular, the operation of the Windows

system.

Before you do any extensive work, always put the

machine in EMERGENCY STOP condition. See also the

information on the installation of additional software (see

"Logging on as a local administrator" on page 636). Even

the change or modification of shared components (DLL,

Registry settings, etc.) can lead to undesired impairments

at completely unexpected locations.
Never do any extensive work on the Windows system

while machining parts! This includes in particular

operations that require a considerable portion of operating-

system resources (computing time, RAM, accesses to the

hard disk, network traffic, etc.).
Do not run any automatic updates, neither of Windows nor

of any other software, as the implemented changes can

impair the overall system both during the update itself and

during further operation.
Do not start any additional software during start-up! This

applies in particular to services such as the real-time scan

components of virus scanners.
Network connections to non-existing drives can lead to an

increased system load under Windows. Do not connect

network drives automatically but only if required!
