Backing up parameters
In addition to the programs, you can also save R-parameters and global user variables.
You can use this option, for example, to back up the required arithmetic parameters and user
variables for a specific program. If you want to execute this program at a later point in time,
you will then have quick access to the relevant data.
Note
Backing up parameters from part programs
Parameters from part programs can only be backed up if they have been saved in the
"Workpieces" directory.
For part programs that are located in the "Part programs" or "Subprograms" directory, "Save
parameters" is not listed.
Backing up data
Which data is offered for backup depends on the machine configuration:
Data
R parameters
● No
● Yes - all channel-specific arithmetic parameters
Global R parameters
● No
● Yes - all global arithmetic parameters
UGUD parameters
● No
● Yes - all channel-specific variables of the user
Global UGUD parameters ● No
● Yes - all global variables of the user
MGUD parameters
● No
● Yes - all channel-specific variables of the machine manufacturer
Global MGUD parameters ● No
● Yes - all global variables of the machine manufacturer
Directory
The directory is displayed, in which the selected program is located.
File name
Here you have the option of changing the suggested file names.
For multi-channel machines, the parameters of the active channel are always backed up.
Job lists
If you select Back up parameters for a job list, the parameters of all programs that it contains
are backed up.
The name of the job list does not agree with the names of the programs it contains. To
nevertheless permit the unique assignment of the parameter files, they are always assigned
the same name as the associated program. You cannot change these file names.
