    Meldas 520 AMR Drip feed

    Wondering if I can get some help on a new machine (to me)

    I have a 1999 Akira Seiki with Mitsubishi Meldas 520 AMR control.

    I can send and receive programs no problem.

    I have a program too big for memory and would like to drip feed......that's where my problems come in.

    Do any of you guys know how to drip feed on a Meldas 520 AMR?????

    Any help would be great.

    I goto "search" on the command menu and change device to computer and I get an error....I cange it to tape....and it is "searching" but they never communicate.

    Do I have to be in "tape"?
    do I have to be in "auto"?


    Please please help

    I would like to learn to drip feed this control. Right now I am wasting time deleting all my usual programs out of the control and loading a huge
    file that barely fits in the memory. I could be drip feeding the huge file and leave my everyday programs in the control. I will have huge 3D sculpturing
    files in the near future. Can you help?
