5.6.1 Unloading Programmes
Unloading part programmes consists of transferring the characters comprising the programme to a computer or
peripheral to:
- Backup the programme on a storage medium,
- Print the programme listing.
Systems with axis multigroups
In systems with axis multigroups, a programme must be defined by a prefix (% [Programme No.]) followed by a dot
and then a suffix corresponding to the number of the axis group to which the programme is assigned.
Unloading a programme defined only by its prefix (e.g. %28) causes all the associated programmes for each axis group
(%28.1, %28.2, %28.3, etc.) to be unloaded one after the other (without Xoff characters in between).
