● Internal SINUMERIK Operate user interface
Because of the existing external SINUMERIK Operate user interface on PCU 50.x in the
system network, the NCU-integrated internal SINUMERIK Operate user interface must be
switched off. The internal SINUMERIK Operate user interface must not be switched off
only when it is used with a limited range of functions, exclusively within the scope of tool
management. Detailed information on this can be found in the Commissioning Manual
"Operator Components and Networking (IM5)", Section "Network configuration" >
"Application example"
● Machine control panel (MCP)
For a flexible switchover of the machine control panels, only one MCP can be connected
to one NCU. The switchover of the MCPs is user-specifically via the PLC user program
(function block FB 9).
