17.1 Overview

USB drives

USB drives enable you to exchange data. For example, you can copy to the NC and execute

programs that were created externally.

Execution from USB-FlashDrive

Direct execution from the USB-FlashDrive is not recommended.

Partitioned USB-FlashDrive (only 840D sl and TCU)

If the USB-FlashDrive has several partitions, these are displayed in a tree structure as a

subtree (01,02,...).

For EXTCALL calls, enter the partition (e.g. USB:/02/... or //ACTTCU/FRONT/02/... or

//ACTTCU/FRONT,2/... or //TCU/TCU1/FRONT/02/...)

You can also configure any partition (e.g. //ACTTCU/FRONT,3).

The "USB" softkey can only be operated when a USB-FlashDrive is inserted in the front

interface of the operator panel.

Select the "Program manager" operating area.

Press the "USB" softkey.
