SINUMERIK 840D sl Operation/Programming ShopTurn (BAT) – 08/2005 Edition
9.3 Managing programs with PCU 50.3 (HMI Advanced)
You can also specify the amount of data to be backed up:

Complete tool list or all zero points

All tool data or zero points used in the program
The read-out of the magazine usage is only possible if your system
provides for loading/unloading of tool data into or out of the magazine
(see Sec. "Tool management", section "Loading/unloading a tool into
the magazine").
Open the Program Manager.
Place the cursor on the program whose tool and zero point data
you wish to back up.
Select the "Continue" and "Back up data" softkeys.
Select the data you want to back up.
Change the suggested name if you want to.
The name of the originally selected program with extension
"..._TMZ" will be suggested as a name for your tool or zero point
file.
Press the "OK" softkey.
The tool/zero point data will be set up in the same directory in which
the selected program is stored.
If a tool/zero point file with the specified name already exists, this will
now be overwritten with the new data.
If an MPF program and an INI file of the same name are located in a
directory, the INI file will be automatically started when the MPF
program is selected. In this way, unwanted tool data can be changed.
Open the Program Manager.
Place the cursor on the tool/zero point data backup that you wish
to re-import.
Press the "Execute" softkey or the "Input" key or "Cursor right".
The window "Read in backup data" is opened.
Select the data (tool offset data, magazine loading data, zero
point data, basic work offsets) that you wish to read in.
