OCI Data Server CNC Commands

Publication 8520-6.6 - August 1999

TRANSFER_AXISCAL_FROM_PORTB (no argument)

Use this command to restore an axis calibration data table from a
peripheral device attached to the control’s port B. This will restore
the axis calibration data to RAM.

For example:

[TRANSFER_AXISCAL_FROM_PORTB]

would read the axis calibration data from the device connected to the
control’s port B. This command will overwrite the axis calibration
data currently in the control’s RAM. This will not affect axis
calibration data stored in the control’s backup memory.

Important: This command does not apply to the 9/PC CNC.

TRANSFER_AXISCAL_TO_PORTA (no argument)

Use this command to back up the current axis calibration data to a
device connected to the control’s port A. This will back up axis
calibration data currently in RAM. This may or may not be the same
axis calibration data stored in the control’s backup memory.

For example:

[TRANSFER_AXISCAL_TO_PORTA]

would write the axis calibration data to the device connected to the
control’s port A. This backup file is not in a man–readable format.
Use the command TRANSFER_AXISCAL_FROM_PORTA to
retrieve axis calibration data configuration from a peripheral device.

Important: This command does not apply to the 9/PC CNC.
