APPENDIX
174
The boot system of the Series 15-B/15i-A first loads the CNC system
software (Flash Memory (F-ROM) → DRAM), then starts execution of
the CNC software so that other software can be executed.
The Series 15-B/15i-A boot system supports the following system
maintenance functions:
(1) Registering a file in F-ROM
D Reads a file to flash memory from an MS-DOS format memory card
conforming to JEIDA V4.1.
(2) Checking a file (series and edition) in F-ROM
(3) Deleting a file from F-ROM
(4) Writing a file in F-ROM to a memory card
(5) Registering a ROM-format file stored on a macro cassette (ROM
cassette) into F-ROM (only series 15-B)
This appendix describes how to register/delete macro programs into/from
the Series 15-B/15i-A by using the above functions.
CAUTION
1 Memory card handling
A memory card can be inserted or removed while the power
is on. While the boot system is running, however, insert or
remove a memory card only while the main menu is
displayed.
2 ROM cassette handling (Only Series 15-B)
Turn off the power before attempting to insert or remove a
ROM cassette.
* For the Series 15–B and 15i–A, the display numbers and order may
differ. The operation method is, however, the same. In the text of this
manual, the screens of the Series 15–B are used. For details of the
Series 15i–A, refer to the Maintenance Manual (B–63325EN).
