It is not possible to e-mail a Staubli JC3 or JC4 loomdisk file as an attachment to an e-mail message. This is because JC3 and JC4 use a nonstandard diskette format which Windows cannot read and therefore Windows cannot make the e-mail attachment.

If you wish to e-mail the file between 2 ScotWeave users then you can, however, make use of the ScotWeave WXF file format to achieve the same result. The procedure is as follows -

At the ScotWeave system which originates the design
1. Create the JC3 or JC4 disk as normal
2. Read the disk back onto the screen
3. Save the weave as a WXF file
4. Attach the WXF file to your e-mail message

At the ScotWeave system receiving the design
5. Read the e-mail and download the WXF attachment
6. Open the WXF file in the Jacquard Looms program
7. Create the JC3 or JC4 disk using the weave on -screen

More Information

Step 3 above is achieved using the File - WXF File - Save as WXF menu option.

Step 6 above is achieved using the File - WXF File - Open WXF file menu option.

To create the JC3 or JC4 loom disk at step 7 use File - Save As then select Staubli JC3 or Staubli JC4 as the loomdisk type.

Note that you can also use steps 1 to 3 above as a method or saving a copy of a JC3 or JC4 loomdisk file onto your hard disk for backup purposes. The JC3/JC4 loomdisk can then be recreated directly at any time by using steps 6 and 7 above.
