Multiple Files and Naming

When multiple files are created, the Code Generator modifies the original file name to allow each CNC file to be stored on disk.

Each file created has the -# appended to the name, where # is the consecutive number of the file being output. The file name extension remains as .NC

For example if the CNC file name is:

Bracket left side-Rev3.nc

then additional CNC files would be

Bracket left side-Rev3-1.nc

Bracket left side-Rev3-2.nc...

 

If the output is directed to a disk which does not support long file names then:

Bracket left side-Rev3.nc, becomes

Bracket .nc

Bracke-1.nc

Bracke-2 .nc...

Up to 99 files may be created.
