2.4.11 Setting Technology-Specific Texts
Application
The following sections are available in the "IF.INI" file for parameterizing the Help
functions:
• TECHNOLOGY
• TEXTFILES
• CONTEXT
• TEXTSEARCH
TECHNOLOGY section
The technology group to which the machine belongs can be specified in the
[TECHNOLOGY] section in order to limit the display of instruction texts to those
entries that are relevant for the machine. Then, only entries that are relevant to the
technology group are displayed.
The following technology codes can be specified:
“m“ = milling
"t" = turning
"g" = grinding
"s" = nibbling
"p" = punching
"a" = display all technologies
TEXTFILES section
The paths (path\name) of the Quick Help text files on which the help function is
based are parameterized in the [TEXTFILES] section.
The help function accesses the following text files:
Siemens "DH\CST.DIR\IFS_GR.COM"
Machine manufacturer "DH\CST.DIR\IFM_GR.COM" (any file name)
End user "DH\CST.DIR\USER_GR.COM" (any file name)
(Also entered via "Settings")
!
Important
The path for the Siemens text file “DH\CST.DIR\IFS_GR.COM“ must exist; if not,
an error message is output accordingly.
The entry for Siemens is specified in conjunction with ISO language as:
SiemensI=file
where file equals ifit_xx.com for turning or
where file equals ifim_xx.com for milling.
There are different parameterization options for the names of the text files when
assigning the text path.
The following table lists the parameterization options and their interpretation by the
Help function.
