Prerequisites
Preparations at the programming station
In order to transfer programs created with the programming station to
the machine tool, you create a transfer directory on the PC, in which
you temporarily store the programs to be transferred. Proceed as
follows:
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
Return to the programming station software
Select the Programming and Editing operating mode
Call the file manager: Press the PGM MGT key
Select the program you want to transfer to the machine
Select the split-screen view
In the right-hand window select the <c:\pgmtransfer> path
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 TNC 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.
