7.3.1 Special directories and memory areas
The following directories contain special files:
Clipboard The clipboard is a directory on the hard disk, where files, which cannot be included in the copy target directory, are stored. This may be the case for example, if their file type is unknown, or is not permitted in the copy target directory or if the reading process is canceled (e.g., on USB memory media).
Archive If you wish to save several files, you can store them in an archive file (.ARC). The source path for the files, which are to be stored in the archive file, is also saved. This allows the packed file to be transferred back to the same directory from which it was copied when the archive file is unpacked again. Series commissioning archives are also stored in this directory.
USB memory The SIMATIC USB FlashDrive has been released for SINUMERIK.
NC active data
The NC memory contains data (e.g. R parameters, tool offsets, machine data) that are not stored there in file format. The directory "NC active data" is provided in the file manager to allow the user to access these data and store them on the hard disk in file format.
If the user wishes to save data in files on the hard disk, they can set up the same directory structure under a directory of any name for "NC data" (.MDN). Via "Copy/paste" any active data can be fetched from the NC and stored in files on the hard disk.
NC-active data cannot be unloaded.
7.3.2 Data on the hard disk
Function
General In addition to the NC working memory, SINUMERIK controls with HMI are provided with a hard disk. It is thus possible to store all data or programs which are not required in the NC on the hard disk. All data are displayed in a single file tree on the user interface.
In the "Services" operating area, all files on the hard disk and in the NC memory can be:
- Managed (new, load, unload, copy, delete, change properties),
- Saved for a series commissioning (NC, PLC and HMI data) and
- Downloaded to the NC memory (programs and files).
Copy to diskette When you copy to diskette the full file names are stored on the diskette.
Additional information
The end of block character is displayed not as "L_F" but as "¶".
System queries The system behavior when copying/creating data (e.g. overwrite existing files or query first) can be configured for all operating areas.
Query dialogs "Save as" In the "Commissioning" operating area, press the HMI/System settings/Query softkeys to specify that a dialog box is to appear before files are overwritten. Otherwise, the files are overwritten without prompting or a copy is created.

- The file exists on hard disk and is overwritten when you select "OK" if the name/data type is to remain unchanged!
- The file exists on hard disk. When you select "OK" a copy is created if the name/file type is to remain unchanged!
Copy file from NC memory:
- The file exists on the NCK and is overwritten when you select "OK" if the name/data type is to remain unchanged!
- The file exists on the NCK. When you select "OK" a copy is created if the name/file type is to remain unchanged!
Copy a workpiece:
- The workpiece already exists. When you select "OK" a copy of the workpiece is created if a new name is not specified!
Copy a directory:
- The directory already exists. When you select "OK" the contents are overwritten if a new name is not specified!
- The directory already exists. When you select "OK" the contents are overwritten if the directory with a fixed data type cannot be changed.
Copy a file of data type main program (MPF):
- The file cannot be created at this location under its original "main program" data type!
Vertical softkeys for "Save as"
All without prompt Press the "All without prompt" softkey if all existing files in the current directory are to be created with new names without a "Save as" dialog. All files for which the original file type can be created are automatically converted to the specified data type.
S kip file Press the "Skip file" softkey if the copy operation is to be continued with the next file.
Abort This key cancels the entire copy operation.
OK An existing file is either overwritten or, if the name or file type was changed, saved with the new name. The "OK" softkey is disabled if you have to enter a new name.

Data storage
Data management directories:
- Workpieces
- Part programs
- Subprograms
- User cycles
- Standard cycles
- Manufacturer cycles
Limit of data management
A total of 100,000 files can be stored in all data management directories, but the number of files in each directory (each *.WPD workpiece directory for workpieces) is limited to 1000 files. Files in other directories do not count toward the total limit of 100,000 files. However, each of these directories is also limited to 1000 files, e.g. a maximum of 1000 archives in the archive directory. Network drives are also limited to a maximum of 1000 files in each directory.
In practice, the number of files available also depends on the file sizes and the available memory space. A large number of files slows down the display generation for directory displays.

7.4 Transfer display MD from HMI Embedded
Function
Usage When migrating from the HMI component HMI Embedded (PCU20) to HMI Advanced (PCU50/PCU70) you may like to transfer tried and proven display machine data from the HMI Embedded configuration to the HMI Advanced configuration, e.g. for use with ShopMill/ShopTurn. The following section describes how to proceed for to transfer the machine data.
Starting point Display machine data reside on the NCU for HMI Embedded, and on the hard disk of the PCU50/PCU70 for HMI Advanced.
Case 1:
Case 2:
Sequence of operations
The transfer consists of two steps:
- Copy the display machine data with HMI Embedded
- Read into the PCU50/PCU70 under HMI Advanced
Case 1 acc. to diagram On the HMI Advanced system: Services operating area Transfer display machine data to the display if not yet activated: Services \rightarrow Select data Select "Display machine data" OK Copy display machine data: Services \rightarrow Manage data Display machine data\BDxxyy.tea Copy

7.5.1 Parameterizing the V.24 interface
Function
Parameters for DIN programs
Default: V.24 user Interface: COM1 Protocol: RTS/CTS Parity: None Stop bits: 1 ☐ With header and trailer labels Data bits: 8 ☑ Stop with end of data transfer character Baud rate: 9600 Archive format: Punched tape with ... time monitoring (sec.): 04 With this setting, programs according to DIN are downloaded (starting with %) or output.
Parameters for archiving with PG/PC
Default: V.24 PG/PC Interface: COM2 Protocol: RTS/CTS Parity: Stop bits: 1 Data bits: 8 Baud rate: ≥ 9600 Archive format: Binary format (PC format)
7 01/2008 Services operating area 7.5 V.24 interface 7
This setting allows files to be archived and downloaded in the SINUMERIK 840D PC format. When transferring MSD, FDD files, it is not permissible to select “stop with end of data transfer character”. Other settings are also possible for ASCII data. These must match those set at the PG. The 6FX 2002-1AA01- cable is intended for this purpose.
Protocol
If V.24 data transfer starts, “Services” outputs status messages in the dialog line indicating the data transfer status. These messages are as follows: “Wait for CTS signal” “Wait for DSR signal” "Wait for Xon character" "Data transfer active"
The following protocols are supported for transfer using V.24,
- Xon/Xoff and RTS/CTS,
- Software Flow Control and Hardware Flow Control
- Xon/Xoff (handshake)
For V.24 data transfer, the modes wait for Xon to receive and send Xon to send data can be set under “interface”. The default setting is H11 or H13. One possibility of controlling data transfer is to use the control characters Xon (DC1, DEVICE CONTROL 1) and Xoff (DC3). If the buffer of the peripheral device is full, it sends Xoff, as soon as data can be received again, it sends Xon (= default setting).
Transfer
It is also possible to use a secure protocol for data transfer (ZMODEM protocol).
Normal/secured
For the selected interface, secure data transfer is set in conjunction with handshake RTS/CTS. “Normal data transfer” is the default setting
The protocol setting is requested for:
- Data input/output
- Series commissioning/upgrade in conjunction with V.24 or PG The SinuCom PCIN software is required as partner on the external PC/PG.
