SINUMERIK 840D/840Di/810D Operator's Guide HMI Advanced (BAD) – 03.04 Edition 7-361
7.2.2 Hard disk
General
In addition to the NC working memory, SINUMERIK controls with HMI
are provided with a hard disk. It is thus possible to store all data or
programs which are not required in the NC on the hard disk.
All data are displayed in a single file tree on the user interface.
In the "Services" operating area, all files on the hard disk and in the
NC memory can be:
· Transferred to and from diskette via two RS-232 interfaces,
· Managed (new, load, unload, copy, delete, change properties),
· Saved for a series start-up (NC, PLC and HMI data) and
· Downloaded to the NC memory (programs and files).
Interfaces
The parameters of the two RS-232 interfaces are also set in the
"Services" operating area. The device-specific interface parameters
and the communication protocol can be defined and stored separately
for each RS-232 interface.
Copy to diskette
When you copy to diskette the full file names are stored on the
diskette.
Other information
The end of block character is displayed not as "L
F
" but as " ¶".
System queries
The system behavior when copying/creating data (e.g. overwrite
existing files or query first) can be configured for all operating areas.
Query dialogs
"Save as"
In the "Start-Up" operating area, press the MMC/System
settings/Query softkeys to specify that a dialog box is to appear
before files are overwritten. Otherwise, the files are overwritten
without prompting or a copy is created.
Query dialog
Copy file from hard disk:
· The file exists on hard disk and is overwritten when you select
"OK" if the name/data type are to remain unchanged!
· The file exists on hard disk. When you select "OK" a copy is
created if the name/file type are to remain unchanged!
