Benderlink LOAD CHANNEL Menu

    This menu allows data to load directly to the benders from the Benderlink hard drive or network path.

    Buttons

    The buttons on the main menu are:

      1. The SEARCH button

        This button allows you to SEARCH for a file in the list of channel files in the current DRIVE path.

      2. The LOAD button

        This button is enabled when a file is selected for loading in the Current Channel Files box.

      3. The DRIVE buttons
        These buttons let you specify the path where the files are to be created.

        The HARD DRIVE button uses a fixed path of C:\BENDERLINK\DATA_BENDER to store part data.

        The FLOPPY DRIVE button uses a fixed path of A:\.

        The OTHER button uses any other path set in the "Set Other" button.

        The Current Channel Files box updates every time you push one of the DRIVE buttons. If you push the FLOPPY DRIVE button when the drive is not ready, then Benderlink will automatically switch back the standard HARD DRIVE location.

      4. The EXIT button

        Allows you to exit this menu without saving data.

    Benderlink channel files always use the name that you create plus a hidden filename extension of "channel". All the files displayed in the LOAD CHANNEL menu are only files that use this extension.
