SINUMERIK 840Di sl Manual (HBIsl) – 01/2007 Edition
Language assignment of the user–specific alarm texts is achieved via the name
of the text file. The appropriate code and the file extension .com are added to
the user file name entered in MBDDE.INI:

The user–specific text files that are now in the directory: <installation
path>\dh\mb.dir are announced to the system using an appropriate entry in the
file MBDDE.INI.
Note
To make sure that the modified file MBDDE.INI is not overwritten when the
software is updated, it is strictly recommended to store it in the intended USER
path(<installation path>\user\mbdde.ini).
Example of adding an additional text file MYPLC_GR.COM:
Note
If the text file MYPLC_GR.COM is created on an external PC and then read in
through the serial interface (e.g. with PCIN), the following lines must be
contained at the beginning of the file:
%_N_MYPLC_GR_COM
;$Path=/_N_MB_DIR
MYPLC_GR.COM: user–spec. file for user’s own German PLC alarm texts
%_N_MYPLC_GR_COM
;$Path=/_N_MB_DIR
700000 0 0 ”DB2.DBX180.0 set”
700001 0 0 ”Lubrication pressure missing”
....
MBDDE.INI:
[Textfiles]
UserPLC= <installation path>\dh\mb.dir\myplc_
Notice
Any modifications to alarm texts come only into effect after the appropriate user
interface has been rebooted.
When creating text files, make sure that the date and time are correctly set on
the PCU. Otherwise, the user texts may not appear on screen.
