15.7.1 Reading-in and reading-out archives
Availability of the RS-232-C serial interface
You have the option of reading-out and reading-in archives in the "Program manager"
operating area as well as in the "Start-up" operating area via the RS-232-C serial interface.
● SINUMERIK Operate on the NCU:
The softkeys for the RS-232-C are available as soon as an option module is connected
and the slot is occupied.
● SINUMERIK Operate on the PCU:
The softkeys for the RS-232-C are always available.
Reading-out archives
The files to be sent (directories or individual files) are zipped in an archive (*.ARC). If you
send an archive (*.arc), this is sent directly without being additionally zipped. If you have
selected an archive (*.arc) together with an additional file (e.g. directory), then these are
zipped into a new archive and are then sent.
Reading-in archives
Only archives can be read-in via the RS-232-C. These are transferred and then
subsequently unzipped.
Note
Start-up archive
If you read in a start-up archive via the RS-232-C, then this is immediately activated.
