saved

return to the TNC user interface while leaving the
archive file open. Alternatively, you can also click the
corresponding symbol in the task bar to switch back

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.
