Check this screen to see if any P–CODE programs are registered. If a
P–CODE program is already registered, its file name is displayed (see the
table below).

4) If a P–CODE file is already registered, delete it. To delete a
P–CODE file, select it with the cursor, then press the ”delete” key.
When no P–CODE file is registered, proceed to step 7.
5) The message “DELETE OK?” appears. Make sure that the selected
file is a P–CODE file, then press the input key. If the wrong file has
been selected, press the cancel key. The DATA CHECK
DIRECTORY screen [Fig. 2.3.1(d)] is then displayed again.
Note
When an attempt is made to delete a system file, such as
a CNC program or the macro compiler, the message
”PROTECT FILE” appears on the screen and the attempt is
rejected. However, the system deletes user files, such as
the PMC ladder, without asking for confirmation. Once
deletion has started, the process cannot be halted. If no
backup file exists on a memory card or another storage
medium, the contents of the file cannot be restored in any
way. To avoid such inadvertent deletion of files, make sure
that the correct file has been selected before deleting it.
Also, back up user files at appropriate intervals.
