4.2 File Management:

Fundamentals

Files

When you write a part program on the TNC, you must first enter a file
name. The TNC saves the program as a file with the same name. The
TNC can also save texts and tables as files.

The TNC provides a special file management window in which you can
easily find and manage your files. Here you can call, copy, rename and
erase files.

With the TNC you can manage and save files up to a total size of 10
MB.

File names

When you store programs, tables and texts as files, the TNC adds an
extension to the file name, separated by a point. This extension
indicates the file type.
