10.4.1 Converting Parameters and

Operating Resources

Call: Menu item ”Parameter conv.(ersion) – Save /
Load”

Back to Transfer menu

The CNC PILOT saves parameters and operating
resource data in internal formats and in special
directories in CNC PILOT. Before transmission the
data are converted to ASCII format and transferred to
the PARA_USR directory.

Inversely, received parameters and operating
resource files are saved in the PARA_USR directory.
In a further step, you ”activate” these files. This
means that the data are converted to internal format
and transferred to special directories in the CNC
PILOT. After this step, the CNC PILOT works with the
parameter and operating resource data received.

During conversion of parameters/operating resources
you define the name of the backup file and influence
its output as follows (in the ”Save parameters” dialog
box):

No comment: Only parameter and operating

resource data are output

With comment: Explanatory comments are

output along with the parameter/operating resource
data

Changing the mask (only in the right window)
The current mask setting is displayed below the menu
line.

Sort: Sort files by name or date

Mask: Only those entries are

displayed that the mask allows.
Wildcards:
*: Represents any characters at this
position.
?: Represents any one character at this
position.
The CNC PILOT automatically adds ”*”
to any entered mask.
