Calling the File Manager

The tool management call can differ as described
below. Refer to your machine manual.

Select the tool table: Press the

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
Assembly 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 190)
T usage sequence: 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 190)

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.

In the tool management, use the

GOTO soft key to

search for the tool number or pocket number.
