Transfer to CADmatic 1/2 - file names for large runs

 

Transferring large runs to CADmatic 1/2 saw controllers (3, 4, 5)

 

These saw controllers have lower limits on the number of items in a run than the Optimising program. Therefore large runs produced by the program may need to be split into smaller runs for transfer to CADmatic 1/2 controllers.

 

The new run names are generated from the existing 5 digit run number with the first digit changed to a character from 1 - 9 or A - Z.

 

For example:-

 

Name of orginal large run: 00003

 

CADmatic run files

 

10003

20003

30003

40003

 

Where this re-naming is not sufficient the program automatically locates the next run number and begins a new set of names. For example, if the limit is digits 1 - 9 then a run that has to be split into 35 runs is numbered as follows:-

 

Large run: 00003

 

CADmatic run files

 

10003 – 90003   (9 split runs)                  

10067 – 90067   (9 split runs)                  

10068 – 90068   (9 split runs)                  

10069 – 30069   (3 split runs)        

 

(Where 00067 is the next free run number for the program).

 

 

Notes

 

- The link to the original run number is lost but the split can be printed at the saw transfer screen.

- CADmatic 1/2 accepts a maximum of 5 characters for the run name.

- Not all CADmatic saws support A - Z for run names - this is set via Saw Transfer parameters
