9-398
Delete programs or directories from time to time that you are no longer
using to maintain a clearer overview of your data management. Save
the data beforehand, if necessary, on an external data-carrier (e.g.
USB memory stick) or on a USB/network-drive.
Please note that when you delete a directory, all programs, tool data
and zero point data and subdirectories that this directory contains are
deleted.
If you want to free up space in the NCK memory, delete the contents
of the "TEMP" directory. This is where ShopTurn stores the programs
that are created internally for calculating the stock removal processes.
Open the Program Manager.
Place the cursor on the directory/program that you want to delete.
Press the "Cut" and "OK" softkeys.
The selected directory or program is deleted.
In addition to the programs, you can also save/read-in tool data and
zero-point settings.
You can use this function, for example, to save the tool and zero point
data for a specific sequential control program. If you want to execute
this program at a later point in time, you will then have quick access to
the relevant settings.
Even tool data that you have measured on an external tool setting
station can be copied easily into the tool management system using
this option. For further details, see:
