Calling the tool management

The tool management call can differ as described

below. Refer to your machine manual.

To select the tool table, press the

soft key.
Scroll through the soft-key row

Select the

tool management soft key: The TNC

goes into the new table view (see figure at right)

In the new view, the TNC presents all tool information in the

following four tabs:

Tools: Tool specific information
Pockets: Pocket-specific information
Tooling list: List of all tools in the NC program that is selected in

the Program Run mode (only if you have already created a tool

usage file, See "Tool usage test", page 181)
T usage order: List of the sequence of all tools that are inserted

in the program selected in the Program Run mode (only if you

have already made a tool usage file, See "Tool usage test",

page 181)

You can edit the tool data only in the form view,
which you can activate by pressing the

FORM FOR

TOOL soft key or the ENT key for the currently

highlighted tool.
If you use tool management without a mouse, then

you can activate and deactivate functions with the

"-/+" check box.
