With the communication tool Access MyMachine (AMM), you can establish an Ethernet connection and realize data transfer
between the control system and a computer. This tool is available in the Toolbox and is supported by Windows Vista/Win 7.
The following Ethernet connections are possible between the control system and the AMM tool on the computer:
● Direct connection: connecting the control system directly to a computer
● Network connection: integrating the control system into an existing Ethernet network
For more information about connecting the AMM tool, see Section "Connecting with AMM (Page 51)".
After an active Ethernet connection is established, the AMM tool provides the possibility of data exchange between the
control system and a computer, as well as remote control of the HMI from the computer. For more information about the tool
functionality, see the Online Help of the tool.
File management and transfer
After an active Ethernet connection is established, you can have a remote access to the control system's NC file system
from your computer. In this case, you can easily manage the NC files with the AMM tool and transfer files between the
control system and your computer.
You can edit, rename, copy, or delete part programs, workpiece programs, cycles, and so on directly in the NC file system of
the AMM tool.
