How do i get my program number not theirs

[robertbair]

Is there a reason my controller keeps changing my program numbers to O0001? Do i need to put somthing around my program number?Top of program has a number of O2007 i send program to machine program number changes to O0001.WTF?

What model Fanuc? What happens if you type a program number prior to hitting the READ - EXEC keys (O2001, READ, EXEC) then send your program?

The easiest way to find out is to punch a program to the PC, and see what it outputs for the program number. It should either be something like 'O1234' or ':1234'.

When I send the program from my nc editor to the machine the program controller changes the number to O0001.

Yep that hapens to me sometimes. If i leave out % on the line before the program number. Or use a program number thats already being used.
