    Understanding file format

    Hi all,

    I'm new to Mazak programming and I need to understand some basis about file format :

    - on Mazak there's EIA and MAZ file
    - our FAO, Goelan, build EIA file
    - I have some pbb file

    I really don't undestand the difference between all these file formats and how to put pbb file on Mazak. We use wireless to transfer program file directly from and to T_Direct Mode Programs directory. Is it ok ?

    Also, where can I find the free mazatrol file viewer ?

    Regards,

    Osaris

    T_Direct_Mode_Programs folder is for running in TAPE mode, if you want them in memory use data I/O and transfer them with a floppy/USB or ethernet and put them in Machine_Programs folder

    same folder, i'm not exactly positive but i think that is your Set-up information that corresponds with the same program, on the matrix it's a .STP file extension.
