1280 HEIDENHAIN Technical Manual MANUALplus 620
Using PLC modules to call CHM files created by the OEM:
 PLC Module 9391 is available, with which a PLC error message is displayed, 
and in addition an offset is added to the value of the error number (= ONL 
Number) in the .PET table in order to generate the actual help number. This 
way a group error number can be defined for an (OEM) device in the .PET 
table, and the error number (used as an offset) supplied by the device in 
case of error then leads to the appropriate help text. This requires an OEM-
specific *.CHM file, which must be indicated in the .PET table (= ONL 
Name).
 Additionally, with PLC Module 9390, a help window can be opened directly 
by the PLC.
Every possible way of calling your OEM help file offers you the possibility of 
showing the entire directory (including HEIDENHAIN help files) in the directory 
tree, or just the directory of your OEM help file. This selection is made when 
calling the help file. If you enter main.chm as the help file in the call (via PLC 
module, *.PET file, soft key or NC error), then the entire directory is shown. If 
you enter your OEM help file OEMx.CHM as help file in the call, then only the 
directory of your help file is shown.
