26.4.2 Procedure - Creating Recipes in GP-Pro EX (CSV Data)

Create a recipe in GP-Pro EX then save to a CF Card or USB storage device.

The following procedure explains how to save CSV data on a CF Card or USB storage device.

1. From the [Common Settings (R)] menu, point to [Recipe (R)] and select [CSV Data Transmission (CSV File List) (F)]. In [Save In] select [CF Card] or [USB Storage].
   
   If the CF Card Folder is not yet set, the following message appears. Click [Yes].
   
   
   Select the [Enable CF Card] check box. Click [Browse] and set the CF Card Folder. Click [OK (O)].
   

   

   • The CF Card Folder is the location where created data is temporarily saved inside the project. The data saved here is saved to the CF Card via a screen transfer.

   • The CF Card Folder can be set using this method or set from the Project Properties.

   

   • Specify the USB Storage Destination Folder when you select [Save in] and point to [USB storage]. You cannot use project transfer to move the saved data saved to the display unit's USB storage device. You must manually copy the data to the USB storage device and then connect the device to the display unit.

2. Click [Add]. The [Add CSV File] dialog box appears.
   Set the [CSV File Number] and click [OK (O)].
   In the file name "ZR*****.csv", ***** represents the file number portion set here.
   

   

   • To enable [Add], [Transfer CSV Data] should be selected in the [Recipe (R)] - [Transfer CSV Data (Condition) (T)] tab.
