Description :
To benefit from the latest improvements to the DECO 10, we would recommend updating all programs written on a pre-TB-DECO 4.3 version.
- In fact, improvements have been carried out with regard to both machine operation safety and programming as and when the new TB-DECO versions have been introduced.
- It is therefore necessary to update the oldest programs, which are now out-of-date.
Steps to be taken: To update a program, it is sufficient to:
- Create a new part based on the part specimen found in the latest TB-DECO version.
- Open the part being updated.
- Recopy all the main program operations to the new part. Do this by copying and pasting all the operations of said program. Those operations marked with an Assistant TB icon (fig. 1) must not be copied, because the optimisations were carried out in this type of operation.
- Re-create all the synchronizations between operations.
- Recopy the overall variable values and tool catalogue.
Tip:
Avoid using an already existing part executed with a pre-TB-DECO version installed in the computer, as a starting base for producing a new part. When creating a new part, it is always preferable to take a basic model or part executed from a recent model.

- points 1 and 2 relate to an improvement in machine operation safety (important!)
- points 3 and 4 provide additional convenience during programming.
