    Question SAVE FANUC 21i NC FILE TO CARD READER

    I have a Daewoo Puma 230M lathe with a Fanuc 21i-model B control. I would like to save my nc files to a PC-CARD. I did it following the instructions I have but what I got on the card was ONE FILE with all the programs together as one program. What I need is all of my nc files saved as individual files (as they are on the lathe)
    If anyone knows how to do this could you give me a step by step lesson.

    Thanks
    Bigbill

    Bigbill,

    I think that you got what you're going to get. Fanuc does the same thing when you punch all programs whether you use RS-232 or the Memory Card. Some DNC programs (at least I know Predator DNC does) will automatically split them into individual files, but Fanuc just sends out one big file.
