directory in the pop-up window displayed by the TNC.
Default setting: Name of the DXF file. If the name of
the DXF file contains special characters or spaces, the
TNC replaces the characters with underscores. As an
alternative, you can also select the file type: Plain-
language program (.H) or contour description (.HC)

Selected Elements soft key and select the next

The TNC also transfers two workpiece-blank definitions
(BLK FORM) to the contour program. The first definition
contains the dimensions of the entire DXF file. The
second one, which is the active one, contains only the
selected contour elements, so that an optimized size of
the workpiece blank results.
The TNC only saves elements that have actually been
selected (blue elements), which means that they have
been given a check mark in the left window.
