Configuring alarms

Example
10.3.7
Convert configuration file
So that the "Alarm&Event Service" can read the XML files, they must be converted into
binary format. Files with the same name are created in the same directory with the file
extension ".hmi", e.g. "muster_slaedatabase.hmi".
Restart the HMI sl
Press the "Exit" softkey to restart the HMI sl. This data is only converted during startup. The
result of the conversion, including the syntax errors in the alarm attribute file, is written to the
"oem_ae_database_conversion.log" file and stored in the
/User/sinumerik/hmi/log directory.
Note
The conversion is only performed when the time stamp of the "*.xml" file is newer than the
associated "*.hmi" file. To force a new conversion, the "*.xml" file must be edited.
