Show Extension in Name: Allows the user to view the file extension as part of the file name at the CNC. For the file

name

Job123.CNC, the CNC displays Job123_CNC in the filename location of the download screen. The

CNC displays

Job 123 if this feature is not enabled. This feature is helpful if multiple files that have the same

file name but different file extensions are being used. A checkmark (

√) before this feature indicates that it has

been enabled.

Add to Files: Allows the user to add to the list of acceptable part program types to be viewed at the CNC. Up to four file

types (extensions) can be added to the default .txt extension. A checkmark (

√) before a file extension

indicates which file extension will be added to any part file that is uploaded to the host.

Remove from Files: Allows the user to remove file extensions from the list of acceptable part program types.

Settings Menu

Allow M65 Auto Reload: Select this option to allow part programs to be partitioned into smaller part programs

separated by the M65 code. During the download, the CNC downloads the individual sections of the part
program and allows the operator to execute that section of the part. When that section of the program has
been completed, the next section of the program is automatically downloaded for execution. The downloads
continue until an end-of-program (M02) code is detected.

Use Multi Drop: Allows the link to be configured for communication with multiple CNCs through one communication

port on the host PC. Up to eight CNCs can be supported with the Multi-Drop feature.

Note: The Using Phoenix Link parameter must be set to Yes at the CNC to enable this feature. In addition, specific
hardware for the CNC (serial communication board Rev D or higher) and host PC may be required to support this
feature. Contact your CNC supplier for more details.

Add Control: Adds a new CNC to the list of CNCs to communicate with. The corresponding CNC number must be

assigned to the new CNC in the link set-up screen.

Remove Control: Removes a CNC from the list of CNCs with which the host PC communicates.

Control Monitoring: Allows you to view CNC status at the host PC. Status for file name, position, cut mode and cut

information is displayed. This feature is only available with the Phoenix Link communication software.
