2.6.2 Program File

When the menu [FILE] is pressed, the PROGRAM FILE screen is displayed.

The PROGRAM FILE screen lists the user-prepared machining programs stored in memory.

Item Explanation

PROGRAM ENTRY and

REMAIN

The number of programs already registered as user machining programs is

displayed in the PROGRAM ENTRY field. The remaining number of programs

that can be registered is displayed in the REMAIN field. The sum total of the

PROGRAM ENTRY and REMAIN values is the maximum number of registered

programs. This value is defined in the specifications.

CHARACTER and REMAIN

The number of characters already registered as user machining programs is

displayed in the CHARACTER field. The remaining number of characters that can

be registered is displayed in the REMAIN field. The sum total of the CHARACTER

and REMAIN values is the maximum number of stored characters. This value is

defined in the specifications.

A value in 250-character units is displayed in REMAIN.

<PROGRAM> The numbers of the already registered machining program are

indicated in the ascending order in the range of 1 to 99999999.

<CHR> The number of stored characters is indicated for each

machining program number.

<ST> The machining program status is indicated. (Not used)

summary of the machining program functions, specifications,

and applications can be displayed as a comment of up to 18

alphanumeric and symbol characters.

It can be specified by data input. It can also be set on the

screen.

(Note 1) If a large number of short programs are registered or edit operation is performed frequently, the

memory use efficiency lowers because of the memory configuration and (CHARACTER +

REMAIN) becomes less than the maximum number of available characters that are stored. If

the difference between them is extremely large, the condense function can be used to improve

the memory use efficiency.

(Note 2) If preparing comment, [SP] (space) can be written in it. But, the space is ignored after

registration for efficient use of memory.
