Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Operating Manual page 407

The following is required for the execution of (Windows) packages that also access data of the
NCU:
● A network connection to the NCU/PPU or PCU.
● Create MyConfig NcuShareService
During the package execution, before establishing the connection to the NCU/PPU, a check
is made as to whether a sufficiently current version of Create MyConfig NcuShareService
is available on the Windows system.
If no sufficiently current version is found, the package execution installs a current version.
This version is part of the package.
During package execution, Create MyConfigNcuShareService shares the "C:\ProgramData
\Siemens\UpNcuShare" folder as exchange release.
Once the package execution has been completed, the service revokes the release again.
NcuShareService
The NcuShareService service is required to execute CMC packages with an NCU/PPU share
component for Windows PC or PCU50. The service activates an exchange release (share) on
the Windows system for the duration of the package execution.
The following options are available for installing the NcuShareService service on a Windows
PC (PG or PCU):
1. Automatically during the installation of the current CNC version.
2. Manual installation of NcuShareService
3. Automatically by the CMC package
Starting to execute the package under Windows
Establish a network connection between the PC and the control devices (NCU7x0, PCU) that
is to be processed with the package.
The package generated by Expert for Windows with the file extension "exe" can be started on
the PCU, the PG or the PC using standard Windows resources ("Run...", double-click, etc.).
If the file is the only exe file in the folder "Install" of a USB medium inserted in the PCU (USB
FlashDrive, hard disk, CD), then the file is automatically started when the PCU is booted.
Note
Unknown USB medium
For older PCU-base systems, ensure that the USB medium is known to the PCU, as a new
medium is installed after the start routine for the package. This means that it may be necessary
to insert the USB medium and then switch-off and switch-on the PCU again after approximately
30 seconds.
