block, or you press the NC stop button, or you close

the file with M_CLOSE.
In the FN 16 block, program the format file and the log file

with their respective extensions.
If you enter only the file name for the path of the log file,

the TNC saves the log file in the directory in which the NC

program with the FN 16 function is located.
You can output up to 32 Q parameters per line in the

format description file.
