2.1 DATA SERVER FILE MANAGEMENT
With the Data Server functions, you can format the built-in memory
card in the CNC file management mode to manage NC programs.
CNC file management
For NC programs managed in the CNC file management mode,
memory operation such as custom macro commands and M98-based
subprogram calling are available. Operate the NC programs using the
PROGRAM FOLDER screen in the same way as for NC programs in
the CNC memory.
As a CNC external input/output device, DNC operation and
M198-based subprogram calling are available. In this case, operate
NC programs using the DATA SERVER FILE LIST screen.

NOTE
1 The Data Server for the 30i-A allows editing and
memory operation of NC programs stored on the
memory card, so the method of managing files on
the memory card differs from the file management
method of conventional Data Servers. Note that,
therefore, the memory card of the 30i-A is not
compatible with the memory cards of conventional
Data Server models.
2 For operation and details of the PROGRAM
FOLDER screen, refer to Chapter 11, "PROGRAM
MANAGEMENT," in Part III, "OPERATION," in the
"USER'S MANUAL (Common to Lathe
