Abstract
The invention relates to a container-processing system and to a method having safety-oriented management of settings for a container-processing system. The container-processing system comprises: at least one container-processing machine for processing containers, at least one container-processing machine having a type memory, in which different data sets for types of processing to be performed by the container-processing machine are stored and can be selected for processing containers; and at least one management device for managing the storing of the data set, the at least one management device being configured, in the event of the creation of one of the data set, to produce a main version (V_A to V_D) of the data set and to assign a status (A to D) to the main version (V_A to V_D), to retain the main version (V_A to V_D), in case a change is made to the main version (V_A to V_D) without a change in the status (A to D), and to additionally create, for the change to the main version (V_A to V_D), a secondary version (V_A to V.N_A; V_B to V.N_B; V_D to V.N_D) having the status (A to D) of the main version (V_A to V_D), and to set the scope of the access to the main version (V_A to V_D) and to the at least one secondary version (V_A to V.N_A; V_B to V.N_B; V_D to V.N_D) by an operator of the at least one container-processing machine in dependence on the status (A to D) and a predefined authorization of an operator.
