6.3 Program management with PCU 50
Open the Program Manager.
Place the cursor on the program that you want to load into NC
main memory.
Press the "Continue" and "Load manual" softkeys.
The selected program is now marked with an "X" in the "Loaded"
column.
If the capacity of your NC main memory is already stretched, you can
also execute G code programs from the hard disk or a floppy disk or
network drive.
The entire G code program is not loaded into NC main memory before
it is executed, but only the first part of it. Subsequent program blocks
are then continuously reloaded as the first part is executed.
The G code program remains stored on the hard disk or floppy
disk/network drive when executed from there.
You cannot execute sequential control programs from hard disk or
floppy disk/network drive.
Open the Program Manager.
Place the cursor on the directory that contains the G code
program that you want to execute from hard disk.
Press the "Input" or "Cursor right" key.
The program overview is displayed.
Place the cursor on the G code program that you want to execute
from hard disk (without "X").
Select the "Continue" and "Exec. from hard disk" softkeys.
ShopMill switches to "Machine Auto" mode and uploads the G code
program.
