Working with ZIP archives

To open ZIP archives with the extension zip directly on the TNC,
proceed as follows:

Call the file manager

Select the directory in which the archive file is saved

Move the highlight to the archive file

Press ENT: The TNC opens the archive file in its own

application using the Xarchiver additional tool

With the key combination ALT+TAB you can always return to the TNC
user interface while leaving the archive file open. Alternatively, you
can also click the corresponding symbol in the taskbar to switch back
to the TNC interface.

If you position the mouse pointer over a button, a brief tooltip
explaining the function of this button will be displayed. More
information on how to use the Xarchiver function is provided under
Help

.

To exit Xarchiver, proceed as follows:

Use the mouse to select the Archive menu item

Select the menu item Quit: The TNC returns to the file manager

Please note that the TNC does not carry out any binary-to-
ASCII conversion or vice versa when compressing or
decompressing NC programs and NC tables. When such
files are transferred to TNC controls using other software
versions, the TNC may not be able to read them.
