15.1 Programming and executing simple machining operations
Protecting and erasing programs in $MDI
The $MDI file is generally intended for short programs that are only
needed temporarily. Nevertheless, you can store a program, if
necessary, by proceeding as described below:
Select the Programming and Editing mode of
operation
Press the PGM MGT key (program management) to
call the file manager
Move the highlight to the $MDI file
Select the file copying function: Press the COPY soft
key
Enter the name under which you want to save the
current contents of the $MDI file
Copy the file
Close the file manager: Press the END soft key
Erasing the contents of the $MDI file is done in a similar way: Instead
of copying the contents, however, you erase them with the DELETE
soft key. The next time you select the Positioning with MDI operating
mode, the TNC will display an empty $MDI file.
For more information: see "Copying a single file", page 133.
DESTINATION FILE =
If you wish to delete $MDI, then
you must not have selected the Positioning with MDI
mode (not even in the background)
you must not have selected the $MDI file in the
Programming and Editing mode.
