    You have to be in edit mode on the program page last I used a Fanuc control. Been using Mazak, Acromatic, and Haas lately. Does your machine control have a CRT or X Y Z digital readout. Some of the older machines are like this. This are a huge PITA.

    Put control in Edit Mode, then use the scrole keys Left/Right on out sides of the CRT. Find a window in which you can enter a program Number (O0001) and look for Punch or Read. It has to be there somewhere at the Bottom of the CRT Screen. Can you post a picture of the control for me to see. It will aid me in helping you. Like I said before it has been a while. Also Look for a Hard Key with the word "TAPE" above it. Your machine more than likely has an old Tape Reader. The Word "Tape" represents the Program.

    Also, on most Fanuc controls when the machine is ready to receive the transfer the screen will blink 'LSK'.

    This might help?

    Exclamation

    Call Fanuc on the Phone. I beleive they are still in Georga. They can tell you what that Alarm is. More than likely for Free if you get the right guy on the Phone.

    They have locations in Chicago Ill. as well.
