Target group
This publication is intended for project engineers, programmers, technologists (of
machine manufacturers), and system startup engineers (of systems/machines).
Use
The Function Manual describes the functions so that the target group is familiar
with and can select them. It provides the target group with the information required
to implement the functions.
Utilization phase: Planning and configuration phase, implementation phase, setup
and commissioning phase
Standard scope
This documentation only describes the functionality of the standard version. Additi-
ons or revisions made by the machine tool manufacturer are documented by the
machine tool manufacturer.
Other functions not described in this documentation might be executable in the
control. This does not, however, represent an obligation to supply such functions
with a new control or when servicing.

Safety information
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal
safety, as well as to prevent damage to property. Notices referring to your personal
safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol; notices referring to
property damage only have no safety alert symbol. Depending on the hazard level,
warnings are indicated in a descending order as follows:
!
Danger
Indicates that death or serious injury will result if proper precautions are not
taken.
!
Warning
Indicates that death or serious injury may result if proper precautions are not
taken.
!
Caution
(With warning triangle) Indicates that slight personal injury may result if proper
precautions are not taken.
Caution
(Without warning triangle) Indicates that property damage may result if proper
precautions are not taken.
Notice
Indicates that an unwanted result or situation may result if the appropriate advice
is not taken into account.
In the event of a number of levels of danger prevailing simultaneously, the warning
corresponding to the highest level of danger is always used. A warning with a
warning triangle indicating risk of physical injury may also include a warning of the
risk of damage to property.

1.2 Overview of functions
What are ePS Network Services ?
The ePS Network Services support machine tool manufacturers and manufacturing
companies with maintenance and services. This is carried out using software
services that are available on a CNC control, S7 control, IPC or standard PC.
This requires both a control on the machine that complies with the specifications,
and Internet access.
The ePS Network Services include:
Remote access
Remote access to the control via a secure Internet infrastructure.
This service permits remote access to the control.
•Desktop control
•File transfer
•Chat
•Video ...
Control monitor services
Recording of events in a history and documentation of the current status of the
control at this point. This allows the status of the device to be analyzed and
compared with earlier states should a fault occur.
The current status of the machine is documented using the following events and
data:
•Alarms, PLC events, time intervals, combinations of machine signals
•Limit value violation and time delay violation from condition monitoring
•Series of measurements/tests and operating performance monitors
•Manual help request by the machine operator in the event of faults
•HMI action log, machine data, NC status data
•PLC trace, PLC data blocks
•Certain files (e.g. log files) of the control
Condition monitoring services
Measurement and documentation of the current machine status on the basis of
predefined, standardized tests and continuous recording of status characteristics
(traverse path, traverse time and traverse operations for one axis). The test
parameters can be defined centrally and configured with appropriate warning limits.
Using series of measurements, it is also possible to identify trends and apply them
as a basis for optimizing maintenance and service activities.
The machine operator can then carry out these predefined tests quickly and easily
and without additional test equipment.

The following tests and monitors are available:
•Circularity test
•Equability test
•Universal axis test
•Variable monitor (NC variable, PLC variable, freely addressable variable)
Data services
Save the current control archives (NCK and PLC archives) on the ePS Server. In
the event of faults, they can be reimported into the controller in a controlled manner
and used as reference for comparisons of control monitors.
Workflow services
Triggering of service and maintenance processes by notification via media that are
internal and external to the system (SMS, e-mail, service cases). Planning,
monitoring, and documentation of maintenance activities on the machine.
Maintenance schedules support you in the following tasks:
•"Look Ahead" maintenance relating to load and usage (see: Control monitors
with machine and service triggers)
•Automated triggering of operating sequences when faults are detected (see:
Maintenance schedules, maintenance jobs, fault help requests, and service
cases).
•Planning condition monitors in terms of dates and content, and monitoring
their processing (see: Maintenance schedules, maintenance jobs and control
monitors)
The Workflow Services can respond to all event sources of the Control Monitor
Services and Condition Monitor Services.
Administration services
Functions for the administration of the system:
•Creation and administration of machines
•Creation and administration of users
•Assignment of access rights for external organizations
•Access to use data / invoices
