1.2.2 "0-INPUT" OPTION. PERIPHERAL -->CNC
In order to send part-programs, machine parameter table, tool table or the zero offset table,
the CNC memory must be unlocked.
When selecting this option, the lower display of the CNC will show the letter "N".
Depending on what has to be transmitted, proceed as follows:
a) To receive at the CNC the machine parameter table, tool table or the zero offset table:
Press the keystroke sequence: [8] [9] [9] [A-] at the CNC and give the order to transmit
at the peripheral device.
b) To read a program which already has its block numbered:
Press [A+].
The program is loaded into the CNC memory with those block numbers.
Those blocks not involved in the transmission will keep their original data.
c) To read a program not having its blocks numbered:
Indicate the starting block number from which it must be loaded into the CNC memory
and press [A+].
For example: the keystroke sequence [1] [5] [0] [A+] indicates that those blocks must
be loaded starting at block number N150. The rest of the blocks will be correlative (there
will be no empty blocks).
Those blocks not involved in the transmission (the ones before the first block and after
the last one) will keep their original data.
The format to be used at the peripheral to send each program block to the CNC must consist
of:
3 digits indicating the block number (optional)
The block contents
The Return (RT) and Line feed (LF) characters indicating the end of block.
Once all the blocks have been sent to the CNC, the ESCAPE character must be sent as end
of transmission.
The transmission may be aborted at any time by pressing [CL].
