Machine tool operations such as traversing of the axes or program start can
only be triggered via a machine control panel.
The machine tool can be equipped with a standard Siemens machine control
panel or with a special machine control panel from the machine tool
manufacturer.
A maximum of two mode groups is possible.
The standard Siemens machine control panel is described. Should another
machine control panel be used, please refer to the Operator’s Guide of the
machine tool manufacturer.
