Abstract
In regard to maintenance services at work station, which is located within the maintenance area of a programmable maintenance device along a plurality of similar work stations, attempts of the same maintenance, which have failed at various work stations have been counted. After reaching a specified number of similar failed maintenance procedures, at various work stations (10, 10a, 10b, 10c) a preset function, for instance an alarm, is released. On the other hand, where successful maintenance procedures have been executed, the numbering of the failed attempts reverts to the zero point.
