I'm having some trouble getting a file to my mill. I'm getting this error "311 device full error 200FF". This file is around 500 lines of code and I know I got some bigger files to go before.
It always stops at sending line 356.

Here is the section of code.

N351 X1.3998 Z-0.015
N352 G00 Z0.1

N353 X1.7457 Y0.2265
N354 Z0.05
N355 G01 Z0.005 F18

N356 Z-0.015 F6

N357 X1.7455 Z-0.0165
N358 X1.7448 Y0.2264 Z-0.0179

N359 X1.7437 Y0.2263 Z-0.019
N360 X1.7423 Y0.2261 Z-0.0198


I am using NCnetlite for DNC and have it set according to their setup sheet. Is something wrong with my code? Or DNC settings? Or parameters on mill?

Thanks for any info

hy i have no experience with pumping data into an cnc ...

to keep the ″wheels rolling″ just break the program in 2 parts

about your error + you load longer programs, maybe there is too much data pumped, thus there is too much code waiting to be executed

i would try :
... runing in step by step, at least arround the area where error occurs, across at least 2-3 data packages sent to the cnc; maybe there is a slower reaction time somewhere
... reducing the code : N358 X1.7448 Y0.2264 Z-0.0179 > X1.7448Y0.2264Z-0.0179, thus dehotting the buffer
... considering there is no code error, maybe there is an upper limit for the data size sent to the cnc

i don′t know how the balance between data sent and program execution is achieved ; that′s all from me

The 7000 control has very little memory and you are running out. Use the FREE button to see what is available or FREE;C to see continuous available.

You most likely will need to remove some files to make room for your new one.

Copy to floppy by COPY command: CO MD1:A.MiIN,FD0: WRITE

Make sure the file transferred by doing DIR FD0:

Then DELETE MD1:A.MIN

A.MIN = whatever file you want to remove.

Thanks, OkumaWiz! Makes me feel kinda small for not thinking of that....

Thanks, OkumaWiz! Makes me feel kinda small for not thinking of that

newer controls have more memory available

i program my machines with nothing extra than good codes, and folders contain nothing more

so i could mess up the MD1 / system devices folders with stuff and the cnc will still take it, while i don't ... so i would say that my/this routine would also work on your cnc

just saying, nothing more ...
