Example: CNC 05: Creating a G Code Program from an ASCII file
Product: CNC
With the CNC05_File.project
sample, you can understand how a G code program is read from an ASCII file which is stored on the PLC. Using an ASCII file is useful when the G code program is very large or was created by an external tool.
The function of the project is similar to the CNC02_online.project
sample project. However, the G code program is read from an ASCII file. No variables are used and the processing order is comparable to the one in the CNC02_online.project
sample project.
