TRAK LPM Programming, Safety, & Operating Manual
Inspect the events you want to copy. Make sure that the dimensioned data uses Absolute
references in the first event to be copied and in all events where it will be important.
Incremental references may be used, but keep in mind where the Incremental reference
will be made from. See the section on Incremental Reference Position in this manual.
In addition, you may want to modify this program in order to get all the events you want
together. For example, if you want to copy events 2-5 and 7-12, you may want to modify
the program to delete events 1 and 6 first. That way, you can copy the all the events as
they are now numbered from 1 to 10. Remember that you can modify this program just
for this purpose and it will not affect the original program unless you save it with the
modifications in the Program In/Out Mode.
When the source program is ready, press the CLIPBOARD softkey. A message will
appear that says "Copy Events Onto Clipboard" and the Data Input Line will read "From
Event". Enter the number of the first event that you want copied and press SET.
The Data Input Line will read "To Event". Enter the number of the last event you want
copied and press SET.
The group of events that you have specified is now on the clipboard and will remain there
until you replace it with something else by going through the same procedure. When
power is turned off to the CNC the clipboard information will also be lost.
The events on the clipboard are inserted into a program in the Program Mode. See
Section 8.11.
