Saw transfer parameter to set the name of the transfer program
The transfer program is different and has a different name for each type of saw transfer and not all types of transfer require a program name.
The action of the saw transfer program varies but the basic process is to take the data from the location set by the Path (saw transfer parameters) parameter and convert it to a suitable format for the saw controller and transfer it to the saw.

EXE or COM files - the optimising program looks for the transfer program in the following directories in this order: Program directory, User profile, Windows system directory, Windows directory, Path specified by the Environment variable PATH

Some transfer modes do not require a program name. Check with the supplier for the latest program names and other Set up details.
