3 Operating Sequences
3.2.3 Influencing "AUTOMATIC" operation
Sequence of operation
EXTEND
Extending an existing file:
FILE
You can add one or more subroutines to a file which already exists by using
"EXTEND FILE". The number of the file you wish to extend has to be
entered in the "FILE" entry field, the first and the last subroutine to be
transferred are entered in the "Subroutine" entry field. It is not possible to
add a main program to a file!
Attention:
If a subroutine is added to a file several times it is also stored several times
in this file (existing programs with the same name are not overwritten!)
Example: File=10, Begin=100, End=200.
If "End" "Begin" is selected only the one number entered under
"Begin´ " is taken into account.
If a file is intended to consist of subroutines only, e. g. frequently required
standard subroutines, a main program has to be created for formal reasons.
CLEAR
FILE
Deleting a file:
Using the "CLEAR FILE" softkey you can delete any file on diskette which
has been created in the remote operation mode (or has been stored on
diskette with a name "NC-xxxx"). The file number desired is entered in the
entry field "File". The main program of this file and all subroutines that may
have been added to this file are deleted.
START
INPUT
Reading a file:
Using the "START INPUT" softkey you can transfer a file existing on
diskette into the NC memory. You only have to enter the file number. The
main program of this file and all subroutines that may have been added to
this file are transferred.
3-110
All subroutines from the NC part program memory the numbers
of which are 100 and 200 are added to the NC-0010 file
on diskette.
