FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to process control. Method comprises steps of subdividing the format change into an ordered sequence of operations for removing components of the old format and installation of components of a new format; transmission of messages on ordered sequence of operations of removal and installation at change of format; automatic detection by electronics of the actual presence or absence of a component intended for the old or new format, before transmitting a message on the operation of removing or installing the component; automatic detection by electronics of actual absence or presence of a component intended for the old or new format, after transmitting a message on the operation of removing or installing said component; and transmitting a message on the operation following the operation of removing or installing a component only after automatic confirmation by the electronics of the actual absence or presence of that component.
EFFECT: higher reliability of maintenance of automatic machine components.
