Configuring Limits for Tool or Component Counters

By default, the warning and blocking limits of the tool or component counters are automatically taken from the type. The warning and blocking limits of the counters can be set individually for each tool and component. The warning and blocking limits of the counters are used to determine the health status of the tool or component. For example, if the wear of a tool or component is lower than expected, the warning and blocking limits can be increased.
