1 About this documentation
This system manual contains information about the system structure of the control tech-
nology. As a superior document, the system manual gives an overview of the system com-
ponents of the control technology and their interconnection.
System commissioning is described as work flow. Detailed information about the individu-
al components, target systems, and the software to be used can be found in the manuals
for the related devices and components.
Depending on the software equipment purchased, some chapters of this manual may be
