EXTEND	Extending an existing file:
FILE

CLEAR FILE

You can add one or more subroutines to a file which already exists by using the "EXTEND FILE" softkey. The number of the file you wish to extend has to be entered in the "File" entry field, the first and the last subroutine to be transferred are entered in the "Subroutine" entry field. It is not possible to add a main program to a file!

Attention: If a subroutine is added to a file several times, it is also stored several times in this file (existing programs with the same name are not overwritten!).

Example: File=10, Begin=100, End=200.

All subroutines from the NC part program memory the numbers of which are 100 and 200 are added to the NC-0010 file on diskette.

If "End" "Begin" is selected only the one number entered under "Begin" is taken into account.

If a file is intended to consist of subroutines only, e.g. frequently required standard subroutines, a main program has to be created for formal reasons.

Deleting a file:

Using the "CLEAR FILE" softkey you can delete any file on diskette which has been created in the remote operation mode (or has been stored on diskette with a name "NC-xxxx"). The file number desired is entered in the entry field "File". The main program of this file and all subroutines that may have been added to this file are deleted.

START	Reading in a file:
INPUT
	Using the "START INPUT" softkey, you can transfer a file existing on
	diskette into the NC memory. You only have to enter the file number. The
	main program of this file and all subroutines that may have been added to
	this file are transferred.
