Function
Programs can be stored in the NC memory ("Load") and then erased
from it again ("Unload") after execution. This prevents the NC memory
from being overloaded unnecessarily.
Sequence of operations
Position the cursor on the program to be loaded.
The highlighted program is loaded from the hard disk to the NC
memory.
The selected program is deleted on the hard disk.
See also Chapter "Job list".
If enable is set "(X)", the program can be executed.
The highlighted program is unloaded from the NC memory to the hard
disk.
The selected program is deleted in the NC memory.
Additional information
Programs which have been loaded to the NC memory are
automatically marked with an "(X)" (in the "Loaded" column) in the
program overview.
If the file is located both on the HMI and the NC, the identifier "X" is
only removed when the files are no longer identical.
If the files have different time stamps or are of different lengths, the
identifier is "!X!".
If you want to "load/unload" a workpiece directory and a job list with
the name of the directory exists in the directory, then this job list is
processed.
If no job list exists, all the files in that directory are loaded/unloaded
(working memory of NC might overflow!).
