Milltronics 3d program
I am trying to move programs to a milltronics machine. The only way I have to do this is with a floppy so I am limited on size. My question is, does the O program and the P program have to be the same? That is what I have been told but to me it seems like such a waist of space. So right now I am limited since every program I move is actually double its original size.

I am transferring from a computer via floppy disk. The control won't alow me to load from the floppy without an o and p file.

Doesn't matter what software I have used. Fusion, Mastercam and written out by hand.
Re: Milltronics 3d program
Do you have full dos names turned on in parameters. You should be able to load a .tap from your cad cam.

Not sure. We don't have a dnc available. Only floppy ????
Re: Milltronics 3d program
Go into parameters enter the password, I think it is under control make sure "use full dos names" is set to yes. No dnc necessary.

Re: Milltronics 3d program
Hi Russell, There are several ways to load programs. how you load and run it will depend on the available memory (Parts storage) RAM, . If the control has been updated to a Single Board Computer ( SBC) etc,
If it is a SBC I have a program I wrote to zip up about a 4.5MB CadCam file Zip it up and be able to UNZIP directly into the control thru the floppy drive or one of my USB floppy emulator drives This works on SBC and controls that are booting from a hard drive.
From there, a couple of other option become available,
I can even update your control to use a thumb drive, This is a full 2GB "hot swappable" thumb drive system that works in DOS. I call it my Super SBC control update.
