Machining centre transfer parameter to control how the 'production list file' is created
The 'Production list file' (Plist file) is a file created on transfer which is used by the WoodWop system. It is used when transfer is via method: '8 - Homag Woodwop V4->V8 (MPR/X)'
Where transfer includes an ABD machine ('Transfer to ABD' is set) two Plist files are created. One for the MPR(X) files for the ABD machine (horizontal drilling) and the other file for the non-ABD MPR(X) files.
The non-ABD MPR(X) files are created in the Work list (LIS) path.
This parameter determines where the ABD Plist file is created. If the parameter contains a path the file is created in that path otherwise the file is created in the 'Path for Horizontal instructions'.
● Enter the full path
or
Use the Directory button
to select a path (or leave the path blank)
Also set whether sub folders are used or not.
Sub
folder
The files generated are placed in sub folders of the path - named after each run. For example:-
c:\v12\abd\00123\
c:\v12\abd\00124\
c:\v12\abd\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.
- In previous versions the ABD LIS file was always generated in the main path and not in a subfolder but this has changed so that the ABD file can be placed in a subfolder if required.
