1.1 Part programs
Editing
To create a part-program, access the Edit mode.
Operating manual
The new part-program edited can be stored in the CNC's RAM memory, in the hard disk (KeyCF)
or in a remote disk. It is also possible to save a copy of the part-programs in a PC connected through
the serial line. See UTILITIES mode.
When using a PC through serial line, proceed as follows:
Execute the WINDNC application program at the PC.
Activate DNC communications at the CNC.
Select the work directory.
Option: Utilities\ Directory\ Serial L.\ Change directory.
In the edit mode, it is possible to modify the part-programs located in the CNC's RAM memory, in
a hard disk (KeyCF) or in a remote disk.
Execution
Part-programs stored anywhere may be executed or simulated.
The user customizing programs must be in RAM memory so the CNC can execute them.
The GOTO and RPT instructions cannot be used in programs that are executed from a PC connected
through the serial line.
Only subroutines stored in the CNC's RAM memory can be executed. Therefore, to execute a
subroutine stored in a PC or in the hard disk, it must be copied into the CNC's RAM memory.
From a program in execution, it is possible to execute another program located in RAM memory,
in a PC or in the hard disk using the EXEC instruction.
Utilities
The utilities mode, lets display the part-program directory of all the devices, make copies, delete,
rename and even set the protections for any of them.
Ethernet
When having the Ethernet option and the CNC has been configured as a node within the computer
network, the following is possible from any PC of the network:
Access the part-program directory of the hard disk (KeyCF).
Edit, modify, delete, rename, etc., the programs stored on the hard disk (KeyCF).
Copy programs from the hard disk to the PC and vice versa.
