Machine manufacturer
Depending on the type of file (e.g. cycles, MD data, IKA data etc.), functions
such as delete, edit, copy, duplicate etc. can be disabled or released
individually on the control MMC.
Please refer to the machine manufacturer's documentation.
The following table provides an overview of the data types that exist and the
directories in which they can be stored. Only those files whose names comply
with NCK conventions can be transferred to the NCK memory.

On the control MMC, the new data type zpfxxxx is used for the type "cycle".
With this new data type, separate disables or releases of functions (e.g. delete,
copy etc.) can be implemented for cycles (zpfxxxx) and subprograms.
When being transferred to the NCK part program memory, the "zpf files" are
reconverted into "spf files" with cycle ID. Prerequisite for this is that the
number areas for subprograms and cycles are strictly separated.
