ool data

Editing functions
When you have opened the tool table, you can edit the tool data by

moving the cursor to the desired position in the table with the arrow

keys or the soft keys. You can overwrite the stored values, or enter

new values at any position. The available editing functions are

illustrated in the table below.
If the TNC cannot show all positions in the tool table in one screen

page, the highlight bar at the top of the table will display the symbol

">>" or "<<".
