AlinIQ NCi - Copy NC (ancc) le onto a USB memory sck

NC les are uploaded to instruments via USB memory sck as described in the next secon.

The following rules apply to the number and type of NC (ancc) les that may reside on the USB memory

sck:

• Any ancc le to be uploaded to an instrument must reside at the top level of the directory structure

of the USB memory sck. The ancc le should not be in a folder.

• The USB memory sck may contain mulple ancc les created with serial numbers, but the serial

numbers must be unique (there cannot be more than one ancc le with the same serial number at

top level).

• The USB memory sck may contain one and only one ancc le created without a serial number. If

both serialized and non-serialized ancc les are placed on the USB memory sck at the top level, then

upon upload to the instrument, the instrument will aempt to upload a serialized ancc le if it nds a

serial that matches that of the instrument itself, otherwise it will aempt to upload the non-serialized

ancc le.

Use the following steps to copy the ancc le onto the USB memory sck:

1. Plug the USB memory sck into the USB slot of the computer. A message displays indicang that the

operang system recognizes the drive and it is ready to use.

2. From the Start menu, click Computer > Downloads.

3. In the displayed list, nd the lename.ancc le and right-click on it.

4. Click Send to: drive name and press Enter. This loads the le onto the memory sck.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each ancc le to be copied.
