When you write a part program on the TNC, you must first enter a

program name. The TNC saves the program to the hard disk as a

file with the same name. The TNC can also save texts and tables

as files.
The TNC provides a special file management window in which

you can easily find and manage your files. Here you can call, copy,

rename and erase files.
You can manage an almost unlimited number of files with the TNC.

The available memory is at least

21 GB

. A single NC program can

be up to

2 GB

in size.

Depending on the setting, the TNC generates a

backup file (*.bak) after editing and saving of NC

programs. This can reduce the memory space

available to you.
