Hi Jason,
One of our machines is an Pratt & Whitney Tapemate. It has the Fanuc 6M control with 128k of memory. We use it all the time for small, short run parts.
The % at the begining doesn't surprise me, that's a "handshake" that's gonna tell the machine your done.
If yours is like mine, I type 0-9999 read (that's a zero)
and your program should look something like this

now you can put a % here at the end, or you can put a sub program. If you leave off the %, you can load as many programs at once that your control will hold.
When you punch programs, same thing , type 0-9999 punch. If your programs in the machine had O's at the begining, that's the same as :'s at least in mine it is.
Anyway, that should get you started. There are some good people on here that have a lot of time transfering programs. And some can get you hooked up just how you need.
I've been in this trade for 27 years and am glad there is a forum to bounce stuff off of other people with like problems. If I can give you more help let me know.
Another 14 hr day, wew, where does the time go!
