Several options may be selected in the main menu item 2 „Edit NC pro-
gram“ of the user interface. With respect to the data import/data export
function, you may define here whether or not NC block numbers will be
output. Taking into consideration that externally created programs may or
may not contain block numbers, the four possible combinations result as:
No File to be imported NC block number
output
1 with block numbers yes
2 without block numbers yes
3 with block numbers no
4 without block numbers no
Fig. 14-2: Output of NC block numbers Yes/No
Only the combinations 1 and 4 will provide a correctly imported NC pro-
gram. Thus, if the file that is to be imported contains block numbers, the
selection of „NC number output“ must be set to „Yes“. If block numbers
are not contained, that option must be set to „No“.
