1.6.2 Details of List File Extended Transfer Function
Two or more main programs registered to the List File are sent linked as they
were a single NC program.
The O number and M30 or M02 codes in the registered NC program files are
not sent.
The O number that is sent at the start of extended transfer can be specified by
the following two ways in the Edit File List screen:
(1) The O number of the first NC program registered to the List File is sent.
(2) The O number specified in the [Specify O Number at Extended Transfer]
in the Edit List File screen is sent.
Though extended transfer of NC programs without the O number is possible,
the O number must be specified according to (2) above.
Send the M30 code at the end of extended transfer.
1.6.3 List File Transfer Monitor and Control Functions
When the List File Monitor screen is used, the transfer monitor is displayed.
This allows to control such as pause, skipping transfer and swapping of the
transfer order for NC programs that are in the List File and that have not yet
been sent.
List File Transfer Monitor Display
During List File transfer, you can display which NC programs have not yet
been sent.
This assumes that you know how far transfer has progressed when you are
sending two or more main programs by extended transfer for DNC operation.
NOTE
1 Extended transfer of the main program and subprograms specified in
the List File is not possible. When this is attempted, the M02 or M30
codes in the main program will be deleted. However, the M99 code in
the subprogram will be sent without being deleted.
2 Extended transfer of NC programs having the same O number is not
possible. Transfer of such NC programs results in an error.
