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.

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.

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
