Database ID
Application
In a tool database for all machines, you can identify tools with unique database IDs (e.g., within one machine shop). This allows you to coordinate the tools of multiple machines more easily.
The database ID is entered in the DB_ID column of the tool management.

Description of function
The database ID is stored in the DB_ID column of the tool management.
For indexed tools, you can define the database ID either only for the physically existing main tool or as an ID for the data record at each index.
For indexed tools, HEIDENHAIN recommends that you assign the database ID to the main tool.
A database ID may contain a maximum of 40 characters and is unique in the tool management.
The control does not allow a tool call with the database ID.
