AlinIQ NCi - Copy NC (ancc) file onto a USB memory stick
NC files are uploaded to instruments via USB memory stick as described in the next section.
The following rules apply to the number and type of NC (ancc) files that may reside on the USB memory
stick:
•
Any ancc file to be uploaded to an instrument must reside at the top level of the directory structure
of the USB memory stick. The ancc file should not be in a folder.
•
The USB memory stick may contain multiple ancc files created with serial numbers, but the serial
numbers must be unique (there cannot be more than one ancc file with the same serial number at
top level).
•
The USB memory stick may contain one and only one ancc file created without a serial number. If
both serialized and non-serialized ancc files are placed on the USB memory stick at the top level, then
upon upload to the instrument, the instrument will attempt to upload a serialized ancc file if it finds a
serial that matches that of the instrument itself, otherwise it will attempt to upload the non-serialized
ancc file.
Use the following steps to copy the ancc file onto the USB memory stick:
1. Plug the USB memory stick into the USB slot of the computer. A message displays indicating that the
operating system recognizes the drive and it is ready to use.
2. From the Start menu, click Computer > Downloads.
3. In the displayed list, find the filename.ancc file and right-click on it.
4. Click Send to: drive name and press Enter. This loads the file onto the memory stick.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each ancc file to be copied.
