Edit the tool table

The tool table that is active during execution of the part program is
designated TOOL.T and must be saved in the

TNC:\table directory.

Other tool tables that are to be archived or used for test runs are
given different file names with the extension .T. By default, for the
Test Run and Programming modes the TNC also uses the TOOL.T
tool table. In the

Test Run mode, press the TOOL TABLE soft key to

edit it.

To open the tool table TOOL.T:

Select any machine operating mode

Select the tool table: Press the

key
