OPY BY CODE
One part of the machine’s memory is used for the data cards.
A data card is a database of cutting ‘spaces’, ‘depths’ and angles for all the keys in the machines data base.
The number of data cards is increased periodically when the ‘Silca Code Program’ is updated. The
updates can be bought separately and easily installed to a P.C. then transmitted over to the
machine.
As the memory can be rewritten, the Personal Computer updates the data cards automatically.
STANDARD data card (S.):
comprises the ‘spaces and depths’ database as de-
scribed in the introduction to
Ch.5 "OPERATING
GUIDE", page 18).
The source of this information can be the SILCA Car
Book, ‘Silca Code Program’, catalogues and other
documents available from Silca
.
USER data card (U.):
personalized data cards can be created by means of
a function available in the ‘Silca Code Program’.
Cards can be stored from the P.C. to the machine’s
memory and the operator may recall them at any
time
