The iTNC drive

When you call the iTNC file manager, the left window shows all
available drives. For example:

„

C:\

: Windows partition of the built-in hard disk

„

RS232:\

: Serial interface 1

„

RS422:\

: Serial interface 2

„

TNC:\

: Data partition of the iTNC

There might also be other networks available if you have connected
them with Windows Explorer.

If you connect a new network drive with Windows Explorer, you may
have to update the iTNC’s display of available drives:

U

Press the PGM MGT key to call the file manager.

U

Move the highlight to the drive window at left.

U

Switch to the second level of the soft-key row.

U

To update the drive overview, press the UPDATE TREE soft key.

Please note that the data drive of the iTNC appears in the
file manager with the name TNC:\. In Windows Explorer,
this drive (partition) appears with the letter D.

Subdirectories on the TNC drive (e.g. RECYCLER and SYSTEM
VOLUME IDENTIFIER

) are created by Windows XP and may

not be deleted.

With MP7225 you can define letters of drives that should
not be shown in the file management of the TNC.
