Q: If the power is lost during cutting, or some other interruption causes the program to be

Resuming Parked Programs.
If there is a loss of power while cutting, the program can easily be recovered as long as the machine
is not moved while power is off. Follow the procedures in section Resuming Parked Programs, but
be sure to select the option 3) RELOCATE PATH, so that the program will continue from the current
system position.
Q: Why can some part program files not be read by the CNC after they are copied to the
USB stick using Windows Explorer?
A: If using the file type extension “.MPG”, Windows can include meta-data in the file or on the
disk. It is suggested that files only use the file type extensions “. CNC” or “.TXT” in order to
avoid problems.
