The machine manufacturer adapts the features offered by the TNC to the
capabilities of the specific machine tool by setting machine parameters.
This means that not every machine tool will have all of the functions
described in this manual.

Some of the TNC functions which are not available on every machine are:

• Probe functions for the 3D touch probe
• Digitizing option

(conversational programming only)

• Measuring tools with the TT 120 touch probe

(conversational programming only)

• Rigid tapping
• Re-approaching a contour after an interruption

Your machine manual provides more detailed information. If you think a
function may be unavailable because of a defect, please contact the
machine tool builder.

Many machine manufacturers and HEIDENHAIN offer programming
courses for the TNCs. We recommend these courses as an effective way
of improving your programming skill and sharing information and ideas with
other TNC users.
