SINUMERIK 840D/810D Start-Up Guide (IADC) – 03/2006 Edition
The SINUCOPY program can be used to
S write to, duplicate and read NC cards for the NCU on a PC with an active
PCMCIA slot and the SINUMERIK system software (NC). The version IDs of
the programs can be displayed (as for the version display for the
SINUMERIK control).
S Data can be read from and written to the PC cards of the PCU with the
SINUMERIK system software (HMI).
S Data from the NC is written to the NC card.
The functions of the program can be called via the menu bar or directly by pres-
sing buttons on the user interface. Help is available for all actions and can be
accessed with the “Help” menu.
Note
NC data can be written to the NC card; for instructions see:
/BAD/ HMI Advanced User Guide, Services area.
12.4.3 Associated conditions for replacing software
The following NCUs are available for software version 6:
S NCU 571.2
S NCU 572.3
S NCU573.3
The following points should be noted during an NC upgrade:
1. If an NCU 5xx with software version 5 is upgraded to version 6, the NCU
must also be replaced with a current NCU that is available for software
version 6.
2. If an NC card equipped with software version 6 is plugged into an earlier
hardware variant (e.g. NCU 572.2), the system will not power up. The status
display flashes in the sequence 0 – 1 – 6.
3. If an NC card equipped with software version 5 is plugged into a current
hardware variant (e.g. NCU 572.3), the system will not power up. The status
display flashes in the sequence 0 – 1 – 6.
4. If an NC card for an NCU 573.2 equipped with software version 5 is plugged
into a current hardware variant (NCU 571.2), the system will power up and
can run.
