Preparations at the programming station
In order to transfer programs created with the programming station to
the machine tool, you must create a transfer directory on the PC, in
which you temporarily store the programs to be transferred. Proceed
as follows:
U If such a directory does not yet exist, create either on your PC or on
any network drive a new directory (e.g. <c:\pgmtransfer>) using
Windows Explorer
U Return to the programming station software
U Select the Programming and Editing operating mode
U Press the PGM MGT key to call the file manager
U Select the program you want to transfer to the machine
U Select the split-screen view
U In the right-hand window select the <c:\pgmtransfer> path
U Copy the program to the <pgmtransfer> directory
Before you can transfer the data, you must connect the
machine tool to the PC on which the iTNC programming
station has been installed. Refer to the section in the
User’s Manual about the Ethernet interface.
You can start the data transfer only from the machine tool.
Refer to the TNC User’s Manual for more information
about copying files.
