    Question Saving Work and Tool off-sets to floppy for later loading ?

    Is it possable to save your Work and Tool off-sets to a floppy so that they can be loaded back into the control at a later time ?

    I see with this how to load them, is there a way to save them ?

    Using a FANUC 16i-M control.

    Most of the fanuc "i" controls will have a [oprt] soft key on the offset page. You may have to press the right arrow soft key to find it. Once you press [oprt], press the right arrow soft key again until you see [punch]. press that, then execute.
    Soft keys vary from control to control based on version and screen size.
