Outputting File

[Todd Zuercher]

I need to output some files that are loaded int the control memory of a router with a GE Fanuc 210i control. I want to back up the files that are in a used machine we just bought, (system files, and a table surfacing file). I need to rewrite the surfacing file because we don't have that size bit. When I try to punch the file though I get an alarm 071 BP/S ALARM, what am I doing wrong?

071 is DATA NOT FOUND

"The address to be searched was not found. Or the program with specified
program number was not found in program number search.
Check the data."

It sounds like it can't find the O number that you're typing in.

I don't have any problem bringing up the file on the program screen. The file is a 9000 series though. Could it be some kind of write protect for the manufacturers code? If that is the case, seems pretty stupid to have to go to the manufacture to make a change to the falboard surfacing file. Is it possible to change the O number of a file stored in the memory?

Parameter 3202 bit 4 = 0 unlocks the 9000 programs.

Thanks that did it.
