Additional information
Language-specific templates are given priority over non-language-
specific templates with the same core name component. Therefore,
you can create a template which can be used for all languages for
which no language-specific variants are available.
Directories for templates
The Services operating area contains the following subdirectories
under Templates:
Users Empty when shipped
Vendor Empty when shipped
Siemens Standard job lists provided when shipped
Templates Empty when shipped
If the Templates subdirectory for this data type is not empty when
creating a new data type, you can enter "No template" to access the
templates in the user, manufacturer and Siemens directories.
User, manufacturer and Siemens templates are available for individual
file types under:
Commissioning → HMI → System settings → Templates
The activation differs according to:
− Job lists
− Initialization programs
− Part programs/subprograms
−
In the Templates directory, you can store:
- Individual templates for various data types and
- Complete workpieces as templates in a subdirectory. The full
workpiece templates are offered for selection when data type WPD is
newly created. If selected, all components belonging to the template
are copied to the new workpiece in accordance with the above naming
conventions. With other data types only the selected template is used.
