ABSTRACT:
A numerical control system which employs a programmed numerical control processor to perform the numerical control functions is coupled to a bulk storage device by a host computer. The bulk storage device stores a download library which includes not only part programs, but also system software programs and diagnostic programs which may be downloaded to the numerical control system upon request. By downloading a system software program the numerical control capabilities of the system can be completely reconfigured to, in essence, provide a new machine.
