How to use the training manuals

The documents (PDF files) contain references which can be activated as a link. You can see this when the cursor turns into the 'hand' symbol. These references within the file always work.

In addition, there are links applying to several files. These references to another file only work on your processor (local) if you have loaded the corresponding file. Make sure that all the files are in the same folder and have not been renamed.

To make work with our units easier for you, you can download our available seminar documents. There you will find detailed information about use, operating principles, etc.

You can print this and use for teaching purposes - of course without alterations and by indicating the source even if only extracts are used.

We would be pleased to receive your feedback. Requests, suggestions, experience with using the manuals are welcome. Critical remarks are also appreciated. If you send us an E-mail, indicate the keyword STV in the reference line.

You can find the following descriptions for all types: function, features, handling, mounting, designs, special units, accessories and application examples.
