The LOAD instruction can be used to load one or more files from the current
workpiece into the part program memory of the NCK.
Entry of the workpiece from which the data are to be loaded is optional. If the
workpiece is not included in the LOAD instruction, the file to be loaded is
searched for in the current workpiece.
LOAD name [channel/TO-area] L F
The identifier "name" consists of the optional workpiece name and the file
name "WORKPIECE
LOCAL/WORKPIECE
WORKPIECE MPFn (a main program in directory
C:\LOCAL\WORKPIECE on the local hard disk)
SPFm (one subroutine in the current workpiece)
ZPFm (one cycle file in the current workpiece)
MPF[n,m] (part programs MPFn...MPFm
SPF[n,m] (subroutines SPFn...SPFm )
ZPF[n,m] (cycle files ZPFn...ZPFm)
* selects all part programs of a workpiece, i.e. all files of a workpiece are
loaded into the NCK memory.
The cycle files ZPFn are renamed automatically into SPFn during loading from
MMC into the NCK memory.
Important
Drive identifiers such as C: must not be included in the "name" identifier. If a
drive identifier is used, the job list is aborted with an error message.
The PATH file can be used to access data from any drives.
Only NCK-capable files can be loaded via the job list: MPF, SPF, TOA 1 ,
ZOA 3 , RPA 3 , SEA, SEA4 2 , IKA1, IKA2, IKA3. The above file names must
be strictly observed, as the SINUMERIK 840C derives the file type from its
name..
1: TO area must be specified
2: Channel number must be specified
3: Channel number must be specified, 0 means data for all channels
Where files stored in the NCK have specific channel or area assignments, the
last character of the file name must identify the channel or area number.
