Availability of the V24 serial interface
You have the option of reading-out and reading-in archives in the "Program manager"
operating area as well as in the "Startup" operating area via the V24 serial interface.
● SINUMERIK Operate on the NCU:
The softkeys for the V24 interface are available as soon as an option module is
connected and the slot is occupied.
● SINUMERIK Operate on the PCU:
The softkeys for the V24 interface are always available.
Reading-out archives
The files to be sent (directories or individual files) are zipped in an archive (*.arc). If you send
an archive (*.arc), this is sent directly without being additionally zipped. If you have selected
an archive (*.arc) together with an additional file (e.g. directory), then these are zipped into a
new archive and are then sent.
Reading-in archives
Only archives can be read-in via the V24 interface. These are transferred and then
subsequently unzipped.
Note
Start-up archive
If you read in a start-up archive via the V24 interface, then this is immediately activated.
Externally processing the punched tape format
If you wish to externally process an archive, then generate this in the punched tape format.
