2.3 Setting Up Access to External Drives/Computers (Option)
Application
The control can be connected to external network drives or other computers. This
makes it possible, for example, to execute part programs from other computers.
Two alternatives are available:
• A maximum of 4 drives can be connected by parameterizing display machine
data.
• A maximum of 8 drives can be connected by configuring the LOGDRIVE.INI
file.
The two options cannot be applied jointly. The LOGDRIVE.INI must be recreated. It
is the preferable choice for applications with multiple TCUs or PCUs because it
allows global network access to these drives.
2.3.1 Connecting Logical Drives Using Display Machine Data
Configuring drives/computers
A maximum of four network drives can be furnished with the following display
machine data:
MD 9676 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH1="Path1"
MD 9677 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH2="Path2"
MD 9678 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH3="Path3"
MD 9679 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH4="Path4"
The complete path must be entered. The paths are displayed on the softkeys.
For example, the connections can be specified as:
• DOS path (e.g., "E:" or ("G:\VORBEREI\MPF_DAT") or
• Network address, consisting of node identifier, share name, and directory
(e.g., "\\R111\<ShareName>\MPF_DAT")
Example:
MD9677 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH2=F:\R4711
;Drive + directory
MD9678 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH3=\\R4712\PART1\SHAFT1.DIR
;Computer name, share name with directory
MD9679 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH4=\\R4713\Part2\MPF_DAT .DIR
;Computer name, share name with directory
The network connection specified in
MD 9676 CMM_DIRECTORY_SOFTKEY_PATH1 is reserved for SINUMERIK
ShopMill or ShopTurn.
