A 'Job Directory' is a directory containing a main program and a collection of sub-programs/associated CNC files.

param

Check this field to put the main and sub programs in a zip file when sending from the NC-Base client.

param

Main program extension

Use this field to specify the extension used for the main program file.

If multiple files in the directory have the same extension, DNC-Max will assign the first program (sorted by name) as the main program, unless there is a file with the same name as the directory, then that will be used as the main program.
