Can any one guide me as how to download part programs from PG or PC to controller, e.g. in PG in which format part program file to be created?, how & where to download the program in controller, i.e. path etc along with cable details etc. Thanks in advance.

Recently a new laptop is purchased to meet this requirement. It is with RS232 port. Now my question is, with this port connectivity & RS 232 data cable combination, as explained in Siemens manual, can the part programs with help of WINPCIN be loaded in controller? Thanks in advance.

I've never tried it as we tend to have Windows NT on most systems. Will it work with WinXP ( we have two ) and does the USB device have its' own softkey on the services page after selecting 'data out'? Or is it dependant on the 840D version? Thanks in advance Simon

NOTE: After this procedure Floppy drive will be no longer active. Regards, Ekalavya
