Merging Programs

The

MERGE

softkey allows you to merge two

MILLPWR

programs together. With this function, all

of the program steps within the program you selected will be copied into your current (or open)
program. Keep in mind that you can edit any of the new steps if you need to (refer to Step
Functions
).

To merge programs:

From the PGM screen, highlight the step in your current (open)
program where you want the new steps to be inserted.

Press the

PROGRAM FUNCTIONS

softkey.

Press the

MERGE

softkey. The last directory that was opened will

appear. You can change directories if you need to (refer to Selecting a
Directory
).

Using the arrow keys, highlight the program that you want to
merge into your program.

Press the

MERGE

softkey again. The steps from the program you

highlighted should now appear in your program.

Note:

The merge function does not work with G-code files or DXF files.

It's always a

good idea to
save your work
before merging
programs so
that you can
easily recover
your original
program if you
need to.
