which contains the Link software configuration information, and a Parts folder, which
is the default Master parts folder.

9. Create a shortcut to the Link.exe file on the desktop of the host PC..
10. At the host computer, create one or more folders in the Parts directory. Copy any part

programs that will be accessed by the control in these folders.

For example, to add the folders Workfile 1 and Workfile 2 to the parts directory, the
hierarchy of the files would resemble the following structure:

Path C:\Link\Parts\Workfile 1 and C:\Link\Parts\Workfile 2


Any part programs that will be viewed at and downloaded to the control should be
placed here. Only the sub folders Workfile 1 and Workfile 2 and the program files
located within them are viewed at the control.

Change Master Folder
If the host computer currently has existing part programs and folders, the Link software
can be configured to operate with the current folder names. This master part program
folder can be located on the host PC or on another PC that is networked to the host PC.

Note: The Link software must be located and run on the PC that is connected to the
communication cable coming from the control. This is accomplished by configuring the
Link software through the Change Master Folder feature to point the link to the folder
that contains the required part programs.

Launch the Link software at the host computer to view the Link window.
