Software installation at the PC (simulator).

The CNC may be installed in the specific hardware that will later be mounted onto the
machine or at a table-top PC that will be used as a simulator for training purposes. The CNC
installed at a PC offers all the features and functions but it can only be used in simulator mode
and cannot be connected to any type of machine.
The CNC installation CD contains all that is necessary to install the software and the
documentation needed to install, set up and operate the CNC. The CNC software must be
installed in the hard disk of the PC; it cannot be executed directly from the CD. The installation
will start automatically when inserting the CD in the CD drive; if not, double-click on the
setup70_Vxx_xx.exe file, where Vxx_xx indicates the version to be installed. Then, follow
the instructions displayed on the screen.
Both at a CNC and at a PC (simulator), the necessary files for the CNC are located in the
following folder. See "1.6 Software configuration."
8060 CNC C:\FAGORCNC and its corresponding subfolders.
8065 CNC C:\CNC70 and its corresponding subfolders.
Installing the licenses.
Local license or network license.
During the installation, you will have to choose the type of license; local license (LOCAL)
or network license (NET). The type of license indicates where the dongle (hardware key)
is connected. For the dongle (hardware key) of he parallel port, always choose the local
license.
• Choose the local license if the dongle (hardware key) will be connected to the PC where
the CNC software has been installed.
• Choose the net license if the dongle (hardware key) will be connected to a server. When
the CNC simulator needs to be authenticated, it will automatically look for the server
throughout the net. The CNC software needs not be installed at the server; however, the
software that enables the dongle (hardware key) must be installed at the server. This
software is included on the CD.
About the dongle (hardware key).
Fagor supplies two types of dongle (hardware key) to be connected either to the parallel port
or to the USB port. Once the software has been installed, in order to use the CNC, the dongle
(hardware key) supplied with the CD must be connected to the PC. If the net license was
chosen when installing the software, the dongle (hardware key) may be connected to a
server.
CNC setting; the MTB folder.
Both at a CNC and at a PC (simulator), the OEM has the folder ..\MTB to save the
modifications done at the CNC; such as the PLC program, the machine parameters, etc. The
CNC manages the MTB folders as follows.
• No MTB folder appears when installing the software for the first time. On system startup
and depending on the validation code, the system will move the corresponding folder
from ..\CONFIGURATION to the CNC8070 and will rename it MTB.
• When changing the validation code, the system will return the MTB folder to the
..\CONFIGURATION folder and will give it its old name (MTB_M, MTB_T, etc); then, it
will move the corresponding folder from ..\CONFIGURATION to CNC8070 and will
rename it MTB.
• If the OEM has created the MTB folder manually, for example by copying it from a backup,
the system will not make any changes on power-up nor when modifying the validation
code.
