Notes for the reader

Naming conventions for finishers (commercial naming and
naming in User Interfaces)
Hardware and hardware naming in User Interfaces
To improve the readability of texts in User Interfaces of operator panels and software,
the finishers are generally referred to by their function. The table below shows the naming
conventions for finishers (commercial product names and the way these are referred to
in User Interfaces).
Note:
In some cases, there is only 1 name for several modules. The reason is that a configuration
can only contain 1 of the available types of modules.
Conversion table for commercial names versus user-friendly names in User Interfaces#
In UI, printer driver and software re-
ferred to as:
Commercial product name:

If a breaker test reveals that it is not operating normally, contact your local authorized
dealer.
