zip directly on the TNC,
proceed as follows:
Calling 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

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 task bar 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.
