Siemens 840D 4075 - Machine data (and maybe others) not changed due to missing
Alarm 4075 occurs when a TOA (Tool Offset Adjustment) file or part program attempts to write machine data (MD) or setting data (SD) with a protection level exceeding the current user access authorization level in the SINUMERIK control. The NCK denies the write operation and continues execution, leaving the data unchanged.

Root Cause Summary
Alarm 4075 occurs when a TOA (Tool Offset Adjustment) file or part program attempts to write machine data (MD) or setting data (SD) with a protection level exceeding the current user access authorization level in the SINUMERIK control. The NCK denies the write operation and continues execution, leaving the data unchanged.
Safety
Causes and Fixes
Access Diagnostics > System Information > User Management (or via HMI Operator Panel). Verify the currently logged-in user profile and their assigned access level (typically levels: 0=Read-Only, 1=Operator, 2=Programmer, 3=Service/Maintenance, 4=OEM).
Do not confuse HLI access levels with Windows user accounts; SINUMERIK maintains independent authorization.
Navigate to Control Panel > Machine > Machine Data > Protection and identify which MDs triggered alarm 4075 from the alarm message parameter %1. Cross-reference the target MD number against MD 18000 (HLI_ACCESS_LEVEL) and the machine data protection tables in the Commissioning manual.
If the write operation is legitimate, log in with an elevated user account (Service or OEM level) or request the machine administrator to increase the current user's access level via Control Panel > Machine > User Management > Edit User Permissions.
Increasing access levels may require OEM password entry (typically hidden in MD 18001).
Re-execute the TOA file or part program. Verify in the alarm history (Diagnostics > Alarms > Archive) that alarm 4075 no longer appears and the machine data write succeeds.
