(3) Operation
l The memory card utility supported by the CNC screen display
function of the FS160i/180i/210i with the personal computer
function can be used only for the input/output of data. The types
of the input/output data are the same as those of the data that the
standard FS16i/18i/21i can input and output with the memory
card (except for C Executor-created application data, which can
be neither input nor output). PMC ladder editing based on direct
memory card execution (ladder editing card function) is
unavailable.
For a personal computer connected to the FS16i/18i /21i via the
high-speed serial bus Type 2 and a personal computer connected
to the FS16i/18i/21i, however, inserting a memory card into a
card slot in the CNC enables the ladder editing card function.
The memory card utility of the FS150i with a CNC Display Unit
with Personal Computer Function can perform input/output of
only the same type of data that the standard FS15i can input
from and output to a memory card.
l When the file I/O destination is set to the personal computer
hard disk on the FS160i/180i/210i with the personal computer
function, the FS160i/180i/210i with a CNC Display Unit with
Personal Computer Function, a personal computer connected to
the FS16i/18i/21i via the high-speed serial but Type 2, or a
personal computer connected to the FS16i/18i/21i via the
Ethernet, the following file manipulation library functions
cannot be used with the C Executor:
aux_file_mount Register a memory card
aux_file_unmount Cancel registration of a memory card
aux_file_memcinfo Obtain memory card status
These functions can, however, be used when the file I/O
destination is set to the CNC card slot with a personal computer
connected to the FS16i/18i/21i via the high-speed serial bus
Type 2 or a personal computer connected to the FS16i/18i /21i
via the Ethernet.
l Position compensation and cursor control on the touch panel or
by the mouse cannot be performed. In addition, mouse dragging
cannot be used on a personal computer connected to the
FS16i/18i/21i via the Ethernet.
l Screen erasure is disabled. Use a function such as a screen saver
function of the personal computer.
