Explanation
- File operations on the split display

The following operations are allowed on the split display.
<1> You can select and display devices or folders individually in each

folder view.

<2> You can copy or move files between folders selected in different

folder views.
(For details, see the section on operations of copying/moving
between devices.)

In the selected folder view, you can perform the same operations as on
the normal screen.

- Path switching

When path switching is performed while the split display is provided
for a multi-path system, the folder view in which the CNC MEM is
selected as a device is changed to a view of the last selected folder for
each path on the CNC MEM.

- Device information display

The device information as shown in the normal program folder screen
(portion in a dotted box in the figure below) is not shown on the split
display (Fig. 12.2.13.1 (c)).

Fig. 12.2.13.1 (d) Program folder screen (normal screen)(15-inch)

You should see the device information on the normal screen.

Limitation
- Device that can be selected in both views at the same time on the split display

The same device of any of the following types can be selected in both
views at the same time on the split display.

•

CNC

MEM

•

MEM CARD(binary format)

•

Data

Server

For other types, the same device cannot be selected for display in the
folder views at the same time.

If any other type of device is selected when split display starts, the
upper and lower folder views cannot show the same sets of folders due
to the above limitation. Therefore, the lower folder view shows the
folder selected as a foreground folder.

- Display units that support the split display

The split display is supported on 10.4-inch and 15-inch display units.
