SINUMERIK 840C, OEM Version for Windows (BA)
The new individual, that means data-type-dependent disables enable for
example the machine manufacturer to store the cycles also in workpieces
without that those can be edited or read out.
The contents of the right-hand list box depend on the "device" selected in the
combo box displayed directly above the right-hand list box.
The following "devices" and directories are available:
•
All workpieces and directories of the MMC (these are also displayed in the
left-hand combo box). The names of workpieces stored on the hard disk in
directory C:\LOCAL are enclosed in square brackets [...].
Workpieces that are located in a directory other than C:\LOCAL display an
additional identifier after the square brackets.
Important
With the help of the WEdit editor, files whose names do not comply with the
NCK convention (e.g. %100 instead of mpf100) can be created in workpieces
or in other directories. These files are displayed in the right-hand list box only.
These files are not displayed in the left-hand list box and cannot therefore be
transferred to the NCK or via the serial interface or to the diskette drive.
•
The NCK program memory and the system data memory of the NCK
•
The FD-E2 diskette drive (if installed)
•
The settings for the serial interfaces (devices) of the MMC.
You can use the EDIT key to switch between the individual list boxes in the
data manager.
The direction of the arrow between the list boxes visualizes the direction in
which files are copied and depends on the list box selected.
Individual files or complete workpieces can be selected within the list boxes
using the ARROW keys and edited using the commands on the menu bar.
The commands on the menu bar are described in the following paragraphs.
The status line in the data manager displays additional information.
The far left-hand box on the status line of the data manager shows you the
amount of free memory still available on the hard disk.
The password status is displayed next to this. The following statuses are
possible:
•
PW on (set)
•
PW off (deleted)
KS displays the current setting of the keyswitch. Depending on its position
(1-4), certain functions are disabled or can be executed (see section 2.2.4).
