5 Program Management



When a program is deleted it is sent to the Recycle Bin.  The 
Recycle Bin allows the operator to restore, or permanently delete 
programs that have been deleted from the folder.



Touch the Recycle Bin button located on the bottom 

bar.  The pop-up dialogue provides four action steps 
that can be taken: Restore, or Delete (permanently) 
the selected program, Empty the bin (all items), or 
Close (bin). 

Selecting Restore should restore the program, and it should now be 
available in the folder list (in its original folder).

Within the Program Manager the operator can access a USB device by 
inserting the USB device into the USB port of the control.  



As soon as the USB device is inserted, the Program Manager will 
automatically display the contents of the USB device within the 
folder list window.  From here the operator can modify, copy, delete, 
etc. any of the programs, or folders on the USB device.



To get back to the previous folder list the operator can 

press the Back navigation menu key or open up the 
directory tree from the Utility Functions menu and 
navigating to the desired location. 



To properly remove the USB device, the operator 

should press the Unplug USB menu button before 
removing the device. 

When a program has been restored from the Recycle Bin, 
it’s contents must be verified.

It is recommended to copy programs from the USB 
device to the CNC and use the program from the CNC.
