Importing tool tables
The machine manufacturer can adapt the
IMPORT
TABLE function. Refer to your machine manual.
If you export a tool table from an iTNC 530 and import it into a
TNC 620, you have to adapt its format and content before you can
use the tool table. On the TNC 620, you can adapt the tool table
conveniently with the
IMPORT TABLE function. The TNC converts
the contents of the imported tool table to a format valid for the
TNC 620 and saves the changes to the selected file. Follow this
procedure:
Save the tool table of the iTNC 530 to the
TNC:\table directory
