Copying network drives (SW 6.3 and higher):
All data types known to the HMI are set according to their
extension and the data management scheme.
A dialog box is opened for files with an unknown extension.
You can enter or change the name and file type -
up to 3 characters are permissible.
If a file of the same name is already stored on the hard disk or in the
NC memory, a dialog box prompts you to change the name and file
type. If the source file and destination are identical, the existing file is
not overwritten. The copy operation can either be canceled or an
integer is added to the existing file name in ascending order.
Operating sequence
The softkey "Manage programs" must be pressed.
Position the cursor on the file that you want to copy and press the
softkey "Copy".
The file is marked as the source for copying. An existing file is either
overwritten or, if the name or file type was changed, saved with the
new name.
Please note that several "Save as" dialogs give you the chance to
change the file name and file type before the files are overwritten.
The "Save as" dialog box appears if the vertical softkey "All without
query" was not pressed and:
1. You have pressed "Insert" for the first time.
2. The file cannot be created in the current directory.
3. The file already exists.
Press the softkey "Paste", enter a new name and confirm with "OK".
When you insert a workpiece directory, you can also change the file
type with the "Toggle key". The file types are matched automatically in
the global part program and in the global subprogram directory.
