Last drawing number 

 

Machining centre parameter storing the number of the last transfer

 

It is not usually necessary to change the value in this box

 

When a drawing (machining) file is transferred to a machining centre the program automatically generates a number for the name of the file. This parameter stores the last number used and this number+1 is taken as the start of the numbering sequence for the next transfer.

 

The way in which drawing file names are used is controlled by the Information box: Drawing name - transfer and the setup of this box determines whether the above sequence of numbers is used or some other method.

 

 

Notes

 

- in a few cases it can be necessary to change the number, for example, where the number sequence needs to start at a particular range of numbers. e.g. 10001
