The files generated are placed in sub folders of the path - named after each run. For example:-

 

c:\v12\exp\00123\

c:\v12\exp\00124\

c:\v12\exp\00125\

 

 

Notes

 

- This parameter appears on the paths and options tab on the second parameter screen for the transfer options it applies to. It is possible to set a different directory for each transfer method in the Machine centre transfer parameters list.

 

- Part positions / rotated are included in the CSV file via a text instruction. Part positions are specified in the machining library by adding a text instruction to a drawing and setting the description to be PLABEL.  The text rotation value can be imported from a text item in a DXF file.

The part label positions and rotation are output to the CSV file in the VARS section of the line. The label positions are based on the part dimensions and are labelled PosX and _PosY and the rotation value is labelled _R.
