Parameterisation options for file extensions in the channel parameter list

The table below shows an example of a setting for the extensions in the channel parameter list. The file extensions for groups 1 to 3 (index 0, 1, 2) can be set.

Channel parameters

Value

encryption_extension[0]

enc

encryption_extension[1]

od

encryption_extension[2]

e

A further group also exists. This group is permanently specified by the controller or machine manufacturer and is used for the encryption of user-created NC programs (e.g. CNC cycles). These NC programs have the extension “ecy”.

Notice

notice

It is strongly recommended that you do not re-assign the file extension “ecy” for your own definitions.

If you define the file extension “ecy”, it is not possible to use CNC cycles since NC programs encrypted by controller/machine manufacturers cannot be decrypted.
