Saving a DNC file to SuiteFactory

  1. If you do not already have a "dummy" program, create a new (empty ) program whose work number is one that your are unlikely to use for a program such as 1111:

    Press: Program  Work No.  Mazatrol Program

    Enter the Work Program number, for example, 1111, and press Input  Program  Program File.

    You should see the program directory on the CNC screen.

  2. Cursor to the "dummy" work number (1111, for example).

      Press: Name Input.

      Enter: Yname_of_DNC_file  Input. Where name_of DNC_file is the name of the file you want to save in the SuiteFactory database.

  • If your database is set up for single version only, then this file name must not match any name already in the database.
  • If your database is set up to allow multiple versions, then if this name matches a name already in the database it will be saved as the next version of that file.

      For example, if you want to save a file in the SuiteFactory database and name it M780983 enter YM780983 in the Program Name field.

  1. Send this file to the DNC computer.

    Press: DATA I/O  CMT I/O  NC >CMT.

    Enter the number of this program, 1111, for example.
    Press START. This program is now sent to the DNC computer.

  2. Wait for about 15 seconds.
  3. Get the CCL Response File from the DNC computer.

    Press DATA I/O  CMT I/O  CMT > NC  CMT CONTENTS.
    Press START.

    The work number of the response file should appear on your CNC screen. 2222, for example. Press CMT > NC  START. work number 2222 should now appear on the received screen on you CNC. In the program list the program name for that work number will contain a Response Code. If a job has been successfully queued up to be received then the code will be "1 – Receiving," if not, there will be a different code. See the list below.

  4. Delete the response file, 2222, for example.
  5. Send the file you want to save to the SuiteFactory database.

    Press DATA I/O  CMT I/O  Save NC > CMT. Enter the work number(s) of the program you want to save.
    Press START. The program is sent to the SuiteFactory database.

  6. Get the final CCL Response File from the DNC computer. This is to let you know the transmission was successful.

      Press DATA I/O  CMT I/O CMT > NC  CMT CONTENTS.
      Press START.

      The work number of the response file, 2222, for example, should appear on your CNC screen. This is the same work number as your CCL command file, above.
      Press CMT > NC  START. Your work number should now appear on the received screen on you CNC. In the program list the program name for that work number will contain a Response Code. If a job has been successfully queued up to be received then the code will be "2-Received," if not, there will be a different code. See the list below.
